This might include: Adding SGLT2 inhibitors (such as dapagliflozin or empagliflozin), which work through a different mechanism by increasing urinary glucose excretion and offer cardiovascular and renal benefits
However, GLP-1 medications can sometimes lead to dehydration
On a standard U-100 insulin syringe, where 1 mL equals 100 units, this translates beautifully: 10mg is in 100 units (1 mL) 1mg is in 10 units (0.1 mL) 2mg is in 20 units (0.2 mL) This makes the math incredibly simple for measuring doses, which is why many researchers prefer it
4 Central GLP-1R pathways linking metabolic regulation and addiction circuits GLP-1 Rs are broadly distributed in brain circuits that play pivotal roles in motivation, including the striatum, hypothalamus, ventral tegmental area (VTA), and extended limbic regions such as the central amygdala and the infralimbic/prelimbic cortex (Pyke et al., 2014
