About this listen

In this podcast accompanying the February 2026 issue of the DTB (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/64/2), Syba Sunny (DTB Clinical Editor) is joined by Julian Treadwell (DTB Associate Editor). Syba and Julian start by talking about this month’s ‘thank you’ editorial (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/64/2/18) before delving into the hot topic of GLP-1 drugs for the treatment of obesity, which is the subject of a DTB review article that summarises what is known about their benefits and harms (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/64/2/19). Finally, they discuss an intervention to reduce sedative use in patients who have been taking these drugs for a long time (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/64/2/25).
