GLP-1 Receptor Agonists
for Obesity
Prescription GLP-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide, tirzepatide) for significant weight loss in people with obesity. Highly effective but expensive.
How it works
GLP-1 agonists reduce appetite, slow gastric emptying and improve insulin sensitivity, resulting in significant sustained weight loss.
What to watch for
Requires prescription. Expensive and not always PBS subsidised in Australia. Side effects include nausea. Weight may return if stopped.
