What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

GLP-1 medication is being prescribed for weight loss. However, GLP-1 medication may adversely affect muscle mass and muscle function. Moreover, any loss of muscle mass or muscle function with GLP-1 treatment may impair balance and increase fall risk. This is a particular concern among older adults already susceptible to the common muscle strength and muscle function loss with age, yet there is little evidence among this population. This study will address a gap in knowledge regarding the effects of GLP-1 treatment on muscle mass, muscle function, and balance/fall risk among adults age 50 and older.
