Thank you for keeping this short. This is a great video for JUST learning names--which is half the battle. Exactly what I was looking for. appreciate that you didn't cram in too much information
It's not GLP-1 lnhibitors( it is GLP-1 agonist they are incretin mimetic they release from small intestine..)they usually decrease the blood sugar and keeps satytiness
...but how to remember each of these drugs, MOA, side effects, etc?
I found it harder to remember the mnemonics than the drugs themselves 😁
