概要
A new oral option is changing the GLP-1 landscape for weight loss, along with raising questions about efficacy, dosing, and when switching products makes sense.
In this episode, TRC Healthcare Associate Editor and Clinical Pharmacist Vickie Danaher, PharmD discusses how semaglutide became the first FDA-approved oral GLP-1 agonist for obesity. She breaks down how it works, how it compares to injectable options, and dosing considerations for patients. Vickie also walks through key counseling points around administration, side effects, cost, and product mix-ups, and offers practical guidance on when switching between injectable and oral semaglutide may or may not be the right choice.
