Abstract
GLP-1 receptor agonists mimic the actions of GLP-1 and are used to manage type 2 diabetes and help with weight loss. In recent times, antidiabetic GLP-1 receptor agonists have been misused widely for weight loss. This review article focuses on some serious side effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists, notified by different regulatory agencies. We searched the literature in online databases such as Medline/Pubmed/PMC, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Ebsco, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and reference lists to identify publications relevant to the serious side effects associated with the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Various pharmacovigilance analyses and notifications from different regulatory agencies have documented the occurrence of suicidal thoughts and self-injurious behavior associated with the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Healthcare professionals should be aware of GLP-1 receptor agonistsassociated suicidal thoughts and self-injurious behavior. Patients should not misuse/abuse antidiabetic GLP-1 receptor agonists and should consult their physician before using any GLP-1 receptor agonists for weight loss.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
