Description

Over the past couple of years, weight loss medications like Ozempic have skyrocketed in popularity, having gained the attention of celebrities and social media influencers for their seemingly magical weight loss powers. As a real-deal Nurse Practitioner, you must understand how these medications work in the body and how to safely prescribe them, and Anna and I are here to share everything you need to know.   Learn what GLP-1 agonists do, the benefits of medications like semaglutide and tirzepatide, and the side effects you must educate your patients on. We’re exploring some of the predicaments that come from its high demand and popularity right now, and how to be a safe prescriber in practice and stay up-to-date with changing guidelines.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://blog.npreviews.com/clinicians-guide-weight-loss-medications/
