GLP-1 receptor agonists (such as semaglutide, liraglutide, or dulaglutide) represent an increasingly popular option for patients who require additional glycemic control after gastric bypass
If a GLP-1 is available and appropriate, it can be an effective option to try prior to surgery. Other times, GLP-1s are recommended for people with extremely elevated BMIs to help them lose weight in preparation for weight loss to surgery, which can lead to a safer surgery
And, despite the trend in literature, have been tightened considerably lately due to a variety of reasons
In a case-matched study of adjuvant liraglutide following retrieval of the intra-gastric balloon, there was significantly less weight regain in the liraglutide group than the placebo (1.2 kg 0.9, 0.7 1.0, p = 0.010)
