glucagon receptor agonists
Glucagon receptor agonists are a specific type of medication that activate the glucagon receptors in the body. They mimic the effects of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar levels and helps regulate glucose metabolism. These drugs are used to treat conditions such as diabetes by increasing glucose production and reducing insulin secretion.
