1. What are GLP‑1 medications and how do they work?

Host: GLP‑1 receptor agonists like semaglutide (Ozempic®/Wegovy®) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) mimic a natural hormone that slows stomach emptying and makes you feel full. They were developed for diabetes but are now widely used off‑label for weight loss. By slowing digestion and reducing appetite, these drugs help people shed pounds quickly.

How do these drugs affect anesthesia?

Under general anesthesia, your muscles relax and you lose protective airway reflexes. Having food in your stomach increases the risk of aspiration, where stomach contents enter your lungs. Rapid weight‑loss drugs delay stomach emptying, so even if you stop eating eight hours before surgery, your stomach may still be full

sanfranciscoplasticsurgeryblog.com.Because of this, many anesthesiologists and plastic surgeons require patients to stop GLP‑1 medications 2–3 weeks before surgery.

. Some practices, such as Edina Plastic Surgery, ask patients to discontinue GLP‑1 agonists at least three weeks prior to surgery to ensure the medication is out of their system and to reduce aspiration risk

. For weekly injectables, anesthesiologists may advise holding the medication for one week before the procedure; if daily dosing, they may hold it on the day of surgery
