Cleveland Clinic Study Backs Bariatric Surgery After GLP-1 Failures
Original: Cleveland Clinic Study Finds Bariatric Surgery Effective for Substantial Weight Loss After GLP-1 Intolerance or Limited Weight Loss
A Cleveland Clinic study finds that bariatric surgery remains effective for achieving substantial weight loss in patients who stopped GLP-1 medications due to intolerance or who lost little weight on the drugs. The findings suggest surgery can be a viable next step as use of weight-loss injections like Ozempic and Wegovy continues to expand, informing how doctors sequence obesity treatments.
