why are glp-1 drugs so expensive the Weight-Loss Freaking Expensive? GLP-1 Drug Savings: A Complete
Description
20 Combined infusions of GIP and GLP-1 have additive insulinotropic effects in the non-diabetic state, 21 and resistance to GIP-induced insulin secretion in T2D can be reduced by a short period (weeks) of intensive glucose-lowering treatment (Figure 3C)

Each generation has added more receptor targets, and each addition has produced better weight loss results

But the costs remain staggering enough to cause many states to think twice before expanding coverage to GLP-1 drugs, the researchers noted
