What are GLP-1 medications? GLP-1 medications are injectable drugs that help control blood sugar and aid in weight loss by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone in your body.

How do GLP-1 medications work for weight loss? They slow gastric emptying, reduce appetite, and promote insulin release, helping to control blood sugar and reduce food intake.

How long should you take GLP-1 medications for weight loss? The duration depends on individual goals and response, with clinical studies supporting use for extended periods for significant weight loss and health benefits.

Are GLP-1 medications a type of insulin? No, they stimulate insulin release but are not a substitute for insulin.

Are GLP-1 medications stimulants? No, they work differently from stimulants and do not have stimulating effects.

Are GLP-1 medications safe? Yes, they are considered safe when used as indicated, though they carry some risks, including the potential for thyroid C-cell tumors in rodents and other side effects.
