Key Words Type 2 diabetes mellitus; Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist; Ramadan; Religious fasting; Safety; Meta-analysis
Core Tip No systematic review and meta-analysis (MA) have previously assessed the safety and efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus who fast during Ramadan. This MA of 4 studies with 754 participants from 11 countries identified that GLP-1RAs are safe with only exaggerated gastrointestinal side effects, mainly nausea and vomiting. GLP-1RA also appears to be effective in improving glycated hemoglobin and helping weight loss compared to other glucose-lowering medications. However, other cardiometabolic benefits like blood pressure and lipid profile improvement were not evident. Larger multinational, randomized trials with wider global participation are necessary for making firmer clinical practice recommendations for using GLP-1RAs during Ramadan fasting.
