they mimic the effects of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). This is a hormone made by your intestines. When taken as a drug, substances called GLP-1 agonists make your body react as if you are getting bigger-than-usual doses of this hormone. That triggers several effec...
Patients consuming thiazolidinediones (TZDs) were more likely to reach PASI75 than those consuming glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors. The combined use of hypoglycemic medicines had an add-on effect on the standard psoriasis treatment, and ...
