I remember the first patient I put on exenatide, years ago. She was a diabetic that was very brittle and we were having trouble managing it, and I said it was worth a try and she agreed. "It might even cause a bit of weight loss, which I'm sure you won't object to," I said, which we had a good laugh over.
She lost 10 pounds and a whole point off her A1c. And that was just the first of the drug class. She was very pleased with it.
Also, pedantic nitpick: the anglerfish in the photo is female.
