Glipizide, sold under the brand name Glucotrol among others, is an anti-diabetic medication of the sulfonylurea class used to treat type 2 diabetes. [1] [2] It is used together with a diabetic diet and exercise. [1] [2] It is not indicated for use by itself in type 1 diabetes. [1] [2] It is taken by mouth.
A large study published in Nature Medicine reviewed the effects of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro on 175 different health outcomes. The findings show benefits for brain and heart health ...
