The rapid demand for GLP-1 therapies, particularly medicines such as semaglutide marketed under brands including Ozempic and Wegovy, has led to the emergence of online products making similar metabolism, weight management, and blood sugar claims
In a rat model of carrageenan-induced acute peripheral inflammation, liraglutide significantly reduced hypersensitivity to mechanical and cold stimuli through its anti-inflammatory effects, notably by increasing interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels and suppressing tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) expression in inflamed tissue [29] (Fig
These cytokines help to fight off the perceived threat but can also cause inflammation
Although separate cohorts were derived from Optum CDM for the present study, the study methodology and variables were consistent, allowing for comparison between periods
A tailored treatment plan can determine each patients most appropriate session frequency
