GLP-1 receptor agonists cause weight loss primarily by suppressing appetite, slowing gastric emptying to increase fullness, and acting on brain regions that regulate hunger and food cravings
Via the incretin pathway, they stimulate insulin release, suppress glucagon release, slow down gastric emptying, and enhance central satiety signal
They are not comparable to any over-the-counter patch on the market
