In the trial mentioned above, one year after stopping the GLP-1 medication, participants also saw: Blood pressure levels go back up C-reactive protein levels (an indicator of inflammation) increase VLDL cholesterol (a type that leads to hardened arteries) goes up Triglycerides (a type of blood fat) go up Hemoglobin A1c increases (meaning the level of sugar in the blood) At high levels, these health markers are associated with conditions like type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and heart disease, to list a few

In smaller studies, without a placebo control, liraglutide lowered levels of some additional markers of inflammation [sCD163 (246), selectin E, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) (247)], while leaving others unchanged [VCAM-1, CRP, and CCL-2 (247)]
