You know these medications, with brand names like Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy and Zepbound, but none of them are specifically approved to treat T1D. Some of the first studies are underway to study the safety and effectiveness of GLP-1s, but that hasn\u2019t stopped thousands of using them off-label or to treat obesity. We\u2019re talking to an endocrinologist and a clinical pharmacist about why they prescribe these meds to some of their type 1 patients, who they won\u2019t prescribe them for, and \u2013 I know you\u2019re already asking \u2013 how they get insurance coverage.   My guests are endocrinologist Dr. Adam Spitz and Clinical Pharmacist Georgina Farrow GLP news story Stacey references here Dr Spitz's medical thriller here This podcast is not intended as medical advice.
