Abstract:
The global pandemic of type 2 diabetes mellitus is still ongoing, in which obesity has played a major role. Obesity not only contributes to the development of type 2 diabetes but also further increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases in patients with type 2 diabetes. In recent years, the management goals of diabetes care has shifted from glycemic control alone to dual " glycemic control and weight loss". Current weight loss strategies include lifestyle intervention, pharmacotherapy therapy, and metabolic surgery, with advancements being made particularly in pharmacological treatments. The novel dual or triple gut hormone receptor agonists hold promise for providing more treatment options for overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes.
