For people with diabetes, the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) is associated with a reduced risk for certain disorders and conditions.
In line with trial results, real-world data suggest GLP-1 receptor agonists have certain benefits in patients with moderate to severe chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Cedars-Sinai experts are advocating for patients to have access to GLP-1 medications such as semaglutide as a key component to caring for and preventing cardiovascular disease.
