Studies have reported that semaglutide and liraglutide are less likely to cause hypoglycemia and are more convenient to use [Reference Schoretsanitis, Weiler, Barbui, Raschi and Gastaldon10, Reference Knudsen and Lau45]
Individuals may seek this treatment for its potential health benefits, though they should also be aware of the risks and recommended frequency of sessions
