Exploring the clinical effectiveness of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in managing cardiovascular complications: an updated comprehensive review and future directives.

The possible cardiovascular advantages of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), a class of drugs predominantly used to treat type 2 diabetes (T2D), have garnered increasing attention in recent years. Clinical trials have looked into the possibility that GLP-1RAs have extra cardioprotective benefits in addition to their ability to manage T2D, demonstrating significant major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) reduction and a favorable safety profile. GLP-1 RAs improve cardiovascular outcomes, especially in those with existing cardiovascular disease.
