GLP-1 weight loss patches are a new approach inspired by GLP-1 receptor agonists—compounds that mimic a natural hormone helping regulate appetite and blood sugar. Instead of injections or pills, these transdermal patches aim to deliver active ingredients through the skin, promoting satiety, reducing cravings, and supporting steady fat loss. While they don’t contain actual GLP-1 drugs like semaglutide, they often use herbal or peptide blends designed to stimulate similar metabolic pathways. They’re marketed as a convenient, needle-free aid for people seeking smoother, more gradual weight-management support.
