The Science

The medications we use involve a class of drugs known as GLP-1 agonists. GLP-1 is a hormone which regulates appetite an insulin production. There are 2 pathways in which the drugs work:

Inhibiting the protein receptor usually bound to GLP-1
Targeting the GLP1 & GIP receptors

Both mechanisms trick the regulatory mechanisms which helps reduce hunger and increases fullness.
