About The Study: This study found an association between glucagonlike peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) use and a lower risk of acute asthma exacerbations in adolescents with overweight or obesity. The findings suggest a potential dual benefit for this population, where a single class of medication could address both weight management and lower risk for asthma exacerbation, thereby potentially reducing the burden of 2 common and interconnected chronic conditions.
