Abstract
In the last decade, the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) drug class has revolutionized treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus and some of its comorbidities, including obesity and cardiovascular disease. Continued advancements in the GLP-1 RA space show clinical promise for patients, though challenges-including barriers to care such as drug expense and availability-exist. This article provides an overview of available GLP-1 RAs and their mechanisms of action, indications, adverse reactions, and risks, providing practical pearls for providers along the way.
