"Ensuring safety and appropriate rate of weight loss is always a concern among healthcare providers who are remotely monitoring patients on GLP1 medication. Without having patients come into a physical clinic, there hasn't been a means of checking health metrics, such as weight and blood pressure, in a way that they can be easily transferred into their electronic medical record for trending over time."
Supporting safe GLP-1 weight loss with remote health technologies
Discover the latest innovations in weight loss treatment—and why remote monitoring solutions play a crucial role in ensuring safe and sustainable outcomes.
Beyond GLP-1s: Withings Health Solutions unveils best practices for obesity care management programs
In partnership with obesity care leaders, Withings Health Solutions redefines obesity care with connected devices to sustain engagement and improve outcomes in the GLP-1 era.
Insights from Withings devices users
We asked Withings device users about their experience with GLP-1 treatments and the biomarkers they’ve been monitoring throughout their health journey, garnering responses from thousands of participants.
What does this tell us?
Withings devices are actively being used to help people monitor key biomarkers like weight, body composition, BMI, and blood pressure while on a GLP-1 medication.
What does this tell us?
GLP-1 agonists offer a promising tool to help patients achieve a healthy weight. But supporting patients in long-term weight loss involves more than medication.
What does this tell us?
Providing patients with the necessary data to make informed decisions and maintain their progress is an essential strategy for fostering their active participation in their health journey.
What does it tell us?
Measuring body composition while on GLP-1s is important for assessing treatment effectiveness, monitoring metabolic health, preserving lean body mass, and ensuring overall health and safety.

Using connected devices to support sustainable weight loss on GLP-1s
Preventing muscle loss
Daily measurement and analysis of patient body composition allows care teams to observe patient response to GLP-1 treatments over time — and intervene to prevent unhealthy loss of muscle mass.
Combatting plateau
Access to data beyond weight and BMI is key to promoting a more holistic approach to sustainable weight loss. It leads patients to focus less on specific numbers and more on healthy changes in their body composition.
Promoting longevity
When care teams can see daily patient progress, it’s easier to determine which patients need additional support. Features such as Withings’ Health Nudges allow care teams to send direct messages, offering motivation that strengthens engagement.
Sharing outcomes
With a suite of connected devices and a platform that observes key patient biomarkers during or after treatment, reporting on GLP-1 outcomes can be easy and consistent.
