Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) medications slow down the rate at which the stomach empties, which decreases feelings of hunger. In addition, GLP-1 medications target areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food cravings.  These mechanisms combined aid in weight management by reducing hunger, caloric intake, and blood sugar over time.

GLP-1 medications are approved by the FDA for chronic weight management in adults who are overweight or obese.
