Starting a GLP-1 RA: Counselling for success

Patients who know what to expect from a GLP-1 RA are more likely to keep taking it. Learn how to prepare patients for treatment, manage gastrointestinal side effects and decide when to hold off on up-titration if nausea persists.

This activity comprises a short educational video, followed by a reflective activity. Participants must complete both components to qualify for 30 minutes of Reviewing Performance (RP) Hours.

Learning Outcomes

1. Outline best practice approaches to GLP-1 RA initiation counselling in primary care.
2. Critically reflect on your current GLP-1 RA initiation approach to identify which counselling elements are embedded and where optimisation would improve patient persistence.
3. Apply enhanced pre-initiation counselling and flexible dose titration strategies to improve patient persistence with GLP-1 RA treatment.
