In this episode, hosts Drs. Peter Lu and Jason Silverman talk to Dr. Rima Fawaz about the role of GLP-1 receptor agonists in the treatment of children and adolescents with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease or MASLD (the artist formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease or NAFLD). We discuss what these medications do, what we know about their positive and negative effects, and how we should be using them based on the current literature.
