Cagrilintide · What it helps
When GLP-1 is hard to tolerate
Cagrilintide works through a different receptor family from GLP-1. People who feel too much nausea on GLP-1 products often carry cagrilintide more easily. It can be used alone, or added to a lower GLP-1 dose to get the effect of a high dose with less sickness.
