Clinical perspective on Creatine kinase elevations on GLP-1 :
I have managed roughly 300 patients on GLP-1 therapy and this topic comes up frequently. What the data shows — and what I see in practice — is that the medication works best as part of a comprehensive approach.
For this specific question, I would recommend: getting comprehensive baseline labs first.

I respect Admin perspective but I think this oversimplifies things a bit. Re: Creatine kinase elevations on — the subgroup analyses show meaningful heterogeneity.
I am not saying Admin wrong entirely — just that the picture is more nuanced than a blanket statement. The STEP data specifically shows dose-dependent variation.
