GLP-1, or glucagon-like peptide-1, is a hormone that plays a role in appetite regulation and blood sugar management
GLP-1-based treatments are administered subcutaneously and work by supporting your body’s natural processes for appetite suppression and slowing gastric emptying, which may contribute to a feeling of fullness.
GLP-1 in higher amounts also interacts with the parts of the brain that reduce appetite, cravings and provide portion control.
GLP-1, or glucagon-like peptide-1 and GIP, or gastric inhibitory polypeptide are dual therapy hormones that plays a role in appetite regulation and blood sugar management
Dual therapy hormones help release insulin to control blood sugar after eating. It may also help individuals feel less hungry by slowing down how quickly the stomach empties, signaling to your brain that you’re full.
If right for you, and based on your individual needs, your provider may prescribe brand or generic drug products, or compounded products deemed necessary and appropriate.
