What you'll learn:
- Explain how GLP-1 receptor agonists work and their benefits beyond glycemic control (e.g., weight loss, cardiovascular and renal protection).
- Compare GLP-1s to other diabetes medications in terms of effectiveness, side effects, and long-term outcomes.
- Determine which type 2 diabetes patients in primary care benefit most from GLP-1 receptor agonists based on comorbidities (e.g., obesity, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease).
- Discuss who should not receive GLP-1s due to contraindications or tolerability issues.
- Discuss primary care’s role in using GLP-1s for obesity management, even in non-diabetic patients.
