The use of Semaglutide is associated with muscle loss and functional decline in older adults with type 2 diabetes, particularly at higher doses. This effect is especially significant in patients with sarcopenia. Consequently, it is crucial to assess the risks and benefits for each elderly patient individually and to implement appropriate monitoring and interventions. The potential for nutritional supplementation and targeted exercise regimens to counteract semaglutide-associated muscle decline merits systematic investigation.
