Glucagon-like peptide-1 drugs and major limb problems in adults with type 2 diabetes and artery disease

Updated

Abstract

The impact of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on major limb events in individuals with type 2 diabetes and peripheral artery disease is unclear.

  • GLP-1RAs may be associated with outcomes in patients with peripheral artery disease.
  • The relationship between GLP-1RA use and major limb events requires further investigation.
  • Individuals with type 2 diabetes and peripheral artery disease were the focus of this assessment.
