The two primary incretin hormones are: GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) These hormones support metabolic balance by stimulating insulin secretion, inhibiting glucagon release (which would otherwise raise blood sugar), slowing gastric emptying (to help regulate the pace of digestion), and promoting a feeling of fullness or satiety, which can reduce overall food intake
At the Primary Care Center of Clear Lake, we recognize that while insulin remains an essential therapy for many, Ozempic offers a range of benefits that may make it a preferable option for some patients
