A new class of medicines has transformed the treatment of obesity -- Wegovy and Ozempic have become household names. While we discussed these GLP-1 medicines on an episode of Beyond the Abstract less than a year ago, the field has progressed so quickly we thought it was already time to review many of these recent developments. In today's episode, Derek and Dan first discuss improved versions of these medicines on the horizon for the treatment of obesity. Derek and Dan then talk about how these medicines are being studied to treat a wide range of diseases outside of obesity, ranging from cardiovascular disease to substance use disorder.
