Overview

Systematic review demonstrates significant weight reduction in obesity via GLP-1 receptor agonists, implying promising cardiometabolic benefits.

Key Points

  • Treatment with liraglutide resulted in average weight reductions of 7–8% over 56 to 104 weeks, alongside improvements in metabolic parameters.
  • Semaglutide achieved weight losses of 14–17% in both adult and adolescent populations, offering substantial weight management options.
  • Tirzepatide showed unprecedented efficacy with reductions of up to 20.9% at higher doses, indicating its potential as a leading treatment for obesity.
  • Despite their benefits, challenges like weight regain after treatment, high costs, and the need for additional safety data remain significant concerns.
