Interestingly, the neural circuits responsible for the metabolic effects of GLP-1R agonism may be distinct from those mediating nausea or malaise (Huang et al., 2024), suggesting that future therapies could be tailored to preserve metabolic benefits while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects
Preclinical studies document significant brain concentrations after systemic (including oral) administration, with behavioral improvements in hippocampal-dependent tasks confirming functionally relevant CNS penetration (PMID: 23055539)

This hormone does a few things: It triggers insulin release from your pancreas, which in turn helps to better regulate your blood sugar
All-Day Wear Wear both patches for up to 8 hours to deliver steady, transdermal support
[1] [2] It works by mimicking the incretin hormone GLP-1, which stimulates insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, suppresses glucagon release, slows gastric emptying, and reduces appetite through central nervous system pathways
