Several CVOTs have demonstrated that GLP-1 RAs reduced CV risk in T2DM patients with established ASCVD or high CV risk independent of HbA1c levels
They also highlight a recurring pattern in peptide drug development: early safety signals, particularly those observed at supraphysiologic exposure levels or in non-human models, have frequently led to premature abandonment of otherwise biologically compelling targets
Development of Exenatide: One of the first GLP-1 receptor agonists to be developed and approved for use was Exenatide, sold under the brand name Byetta
Signs of dehydration: Symptoms like dry mouth, extreme thirst, dizziness, and dark urine suggest dehydration, which can be dangerous if not treated
