Effects of retatrutide on body composition in people with type 2 diabetes: a substudy of a phase 2, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, randomised trial
Chair of RACGP Specific Interests Obesity Management, GP and dietitian Dr Terri-Lynne South says this is not the first time issues around semaglutide and mental health have been raised, but the studies can be conflicting
The ultimate goal for researchers in the ESSENCE trial is to find the right balance of semaglutide to resolve the damage caused by the fat buildup in the liver (steatohepatitis) while at the same time improve the scarring (fibrosis)
Additionally, it has been shown to stimulate collagen production, positively impacting skin elasticity and appearance
What the Research Shows Several studies have looked at semaglutide in people who dont have diabetes
