The Provider Perspective
Health Writing from a Nurse Practitioner
GLP-1 Content
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1s), like Ozempic, are medications originally developed to manage diabetes. In the last few years, they have gained popularity for treating obesity.
With their growing popularity, there is a great demand for information on this class of medications. With ongoing research on the GLP-1s, more information is increasingly available. From my experience as a nurse practitioner, I bring knowledge of how the medications work and an ability to understand the new research that is coming out on them. I also understand the patient's viewpoint on obesity and obesity-related issues. All of this means I can translate complex information into user-friendly content.
