A cardiologist tells the truth

If you haven’t read it yet, an excellent commentary was published in Medscape this week by a cardiologist and obesity specialist. He pushes back against rampant misinformation around compounded GLP-1s. Dr. Eldav Einav distinguishes between counterfeit and compounded products, and he makes a great point — by completely dismissing compounded medications, prescribers and others may be unintentionally bolstering the black market. How? Patients may feel their only option to access these medications is going outside of the legitimate health care system. APC worked with Dr. Einav to prepare the piece. Please share it with prescribers in your area.
