Lead: Association between GLP-1 receptor agonists and alcohol-related hospitalisations among adults with alcohol use disorder: Multi-target trial emulation study

Association between GLP-1 receptor agonists and alcohol-related hospitalisations among adults with alcohol use disorder: Multi-target trial emulation study BMJ Open This retrospective cohort study using target trial emulation evaluated the association between use of newer glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs; semaglutide, tirzepatide) and alcohol-related hospitalizations among adults with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) or obesity. The authors found that among adults with AUD and T2D or obesity, initiation of newer GLP-1 RAs was associated with a lower observed risk of alcohol-related hospitalization.    Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM
