The Provider Perspective
Health Writing From A Nurse Practitioner
GLP-1 Content
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1s), like Ozempic and Victoza, are medications originally developed to manage diabetes. In the last few years, they have gained popularity in the treatment of obesity.
​
With their growing prevalence, there is a great demand for information on this class of medications. The ongoing research on the GLP-1s means more information on these treatments to update consumers and providers.
My experience as a nurse practitioner informs my writing with the knowledge of how the medications work, an ability to understand the new research, and the patient's viewpoint on obesity and obesity-related issues. All of this means I can translate complex information into the content readers are looking for with these treatments.
