While we have lots of safety and efficacy data for GLP-1 RAs, including head-to-head trials comparing therapies, real-world medication adherence and persistence is typically much lower. So how can we help patients to maximise the chances of treatment success? Join Prof. Stephen Bain for a discussion of how to implement strategies to support patients in starting GLP-1 RA therapy.
We’ve got a new website! Find it at diabetes.knowledgeintopractice.com, where you can see all past episodes of the podcast as well as other free CME resources. Follow us on Twitter (@dkipractice) or connect on LinkedIn.
