While GLP-1 agonists have become household names with drugs like semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and liraglutide (Victoza/Saxenda), newer compounds like GLP-3 are expanding our understanding of metabolic regulation
Recently, we found that semaglutide therapy post-stroke can prevent ischemia-induced neurotoxicity and normalize neurogenesis and proliferation of stem cells in the brain via inhibition of p38 MAPK/MKK/c-Jun activity, regulation of Bcl-2/Bax pathways, and C-raf/ERK/caspase-3, restoration of insulin signaling sensitivity, and normalization of the ERK1 and IRS1 pathways (120)
Six providers clear that filter: Peak Wellness, Eden, Strut Health, GobyMeds, MyStart Health, and Willow
Serious Side Effects: Although rare, watch for symptoms of allergic reactions, such as severe dizziness or difficulty breathing
Blood glucose improvements typically begin within the first week of GLP-1 therapy, with fasting glucose reductions noticeable within 24 weeks
Subsidy shifts: The subsidies that lower premiums are set by Congress, and they could look different in 2026
