🆕 We've published a new Cochrane #SystematicReview protocol: Blood pressure lowering efficacy of dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/glucagon-like peptide-1 (GIP/GLP-1) receptor agonists compared to glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists doi.org/10.1002/1465...

SR & MA findings: very few (<10%) clinical trials report adverse drug withdrawal event (ADWE) following #deprescribing, and reporting methods are inconsistent. Standardizing reporting is needed to generate more robust evidence on deRXing and ADWEs: agsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
