Treating Sleep Apnea and Chronic Disease with GLP-1s

Treating Sleep Apnea and Chronic Disease with GLP-1s

In this episode of Everything GLP-1, Dr. Lavin speaks with Dr. David Ware, a family medicine physician board certified in sleep medicine who has practiced in rural Louisiana since 2002 and now works with YourEra helping patients optimize weight and health, to explore how GLP-1 therapy is reshaping the treatment of sleep apnea and other chronic conditions.


Dr. Ware explains how GLP-1s complement CPAP therapy rather than replace it outright, offering patients a long-term pathway toward reduced severity or even resolution of sleep apnea alongside improvements in blood pressure, cardiovascular risk, and joint pain. Together, they discuss the importance of individualized dosing, the green-zone concept for minimizing side effects, and practical guidance on hydration and constipation management during treatment.


It's an insightful discussion for clinicians, healthcare leaders, and anyone interested in how GLP-1 therapy addresses chronic disease at its root cause rather than merely managing symptoms.
