❌Myth: GLP-1 medications are expensive and not accessible.
✅Fact: While GLP-1 meds can be costly, most insurance plans cover them for those with type 2 diabetes. There are generic versions available for some GLP-1’s, which can reduce the cost & telehealth options can be game changers for access!

❌ Myth: GLP-1 medications are only effective in the short term.
✅Fact: Many people see long-term benefits from GLP-1 therapy when combined with ongoing lifestyle changes. However, discontinuing the medication can result in regaining lost weight, so ongoing support and adherence are important.
