Frequently Asked Questions Q: Can I take cagrilintide at the same time as my GLP-1 medication

GLP-1 receptor agonists (such as semaglutide) act on a different hormone system: they activate GLP-1 receptors in the pancreas (to enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion and suppress glucagon) and in the brain (notably the hypothalamus) to reduce appetite and food intake

At Meto, we work with patients on both these medications regularly, and the difference between an FDA-approved GLP-1 and an uncharacterized compounded peptide is not minor it is fundamental

For example, following diet-induced weight loss, increases can be seen in levels of ghrelin, and gastric inhibitory polypeptide with decreases in levels of leptin, amylin, insulin, PYY, CCK, and glucagon-like peptide-1
