How Liraglutide Works

Liraglutide mimics the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which helps regulate blood glucose levels by:

• Increasing insulin secretion when blood sugar is high
• Reducing excess glucagon release
• Slowing digestion to prevent glucose spikes
• Increasing satiety, which may aid in weight management
