Drugs that target the GLP-1 and GIP pathways can suppress appetite, potentially leading to a significant caloric deficit.

This can lead to the body to break down muscle tissue to obtain protein for energy which could lead to a loss of lean muscle mass

However, maintaining regular exercise and consuming sufficient protein can help to minimize the impact of lean muscle mass loss
