🤳 First developed as treatments for diabetes, GLP-1 receptor agonists are increasing in popularity for weight loss, thanks in part to social media and celebrity endorsements.
🤢 GI S/Es are common, including nausea, vomiting and constipation.
💊 In the future, there may be expanded indications for use, such as dumping syndrome or chronic diarrhoeal conditions.

A reminder - again- to media colleagues

#Prevention & discussion of that (or 'remission') - When talking in context of #Diabetes- kindly mention Type #T2Diabetes

Why?

Cos otherwise to a child with #T1D who may not understand “context”?

It’s giving false hope
And unfair

Amongst many other things

Thank you
