He may also order lab testing to evaluate your baseline hormone levels and metabolic markers
Early intervention of these lesions is significant to prevent carcinogenesis and improve patients prognosis
The American Diabetes Association Standards of Care recommends dose reductions of insulin (by 10-20%) and sulfonylureas when initiating GLP-1 receptor agonists to minimize hypoglycemia risk
[1] [3] The medication 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
GLP-1s may offer more metabolic benefit
Fun facts: Topiramate works by blocking voltage dependent sodium channels, increasing GABA (the inhibitory neurotransmitter) and decreasing glutamate (the excitatory neurotransmitter) activity to avoid neural excitability, thus preventing seizures
