GLP-1 class drugs have become increasingly known for their role in obesity management, but their use should be done exclusively on the recommendation and under the supervision of a doctor. These therapies represent an effective tool in the treatment of excess weight, but are part of a complex therapeutic plan, which may include lifestyle changes, nutritional counseling, psychological support and, in some cases, bariatric surgery.
Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease, and the success of treatment depends on a personalized approach and careful monitoring of each patient.
