A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
AIMS: Despite the established efficacy of tirzepatide in randomised controlled trials, real-world effectiveness data in Japanese patients remain limited. This study evaluated the real-world effectiveness and safety of tirzepatide in Japanese patients…
Prediabetes is a frequently occurring condition with increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are established antidiabetic agents, also used to treat obesity. T…
Incretin-based therapies have revolutionised the management of metabolic disorders, transitioning from DPP-4 inhibitors to advanced GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and next-generation dual and triple agonists. This review explores the evolving rol…
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Simultaneous control of HbA, lipid profile, BP and body weight is essential for preventing chronic complications of type 2 diabetes. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-based therapies improve all these variables but whether the dual GLP…
BACKGROUND: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) remains a major public health problem, with few effective medications currently available. However, peptides of the gut-brain axis appear to offer promising therapeutic targets for AUD as they influence the meso…
Incretin-based therapies, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4is), and the dual GIP/GLP-1 RA tirzepatide, are widely prescribed for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Their musculoske…
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of pharmacist-led management of GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as compared to usual care by a physician. METHODS: This was a retrosp…
In 2024, a second brand of injectable semaglutide was marketed, authorized for the indication of weight loss, along with the first tirzepatide. Both are indicated as an adjunct to a low-calorie diet and increased physical activity for weight control,…
This study aimed to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and psychiatric safety of tirzepatide among adults with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, focusing on the risks of mortality, hospitalization, and suicidal behavior. Based on the electronic he…
INTRODUCTION: Increased risk of suicidality has been reported in association with glucagon-like peptide receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) prescription. Herein, we conducted a comprehensive review evaluating reports of GLP-1 RA prescription and suicidality.…
to assess the safety profile of Gastrointestinal (GIT), renal, and pancreatic effects of GLP-1 and dual receptor agonists.Disproportionality analyses were performed on FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data following each drug's approval for…
OBJECTIVE: Two glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) (semaglutide and liraglutide) and one dual agonist (tirzepatide) are FDA-approved for weight loss in adults with obesity without type 2 diabetes mellitus. This systematic review and…
OBJECTIVES: Diabetes mellitus, including new-onset diabetes after transplant, is a prevalent complication in solid-organ transplant recipients, often necessitating complex glycemic management. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, including sema…
