liraglutide
Liraglutide is a medication that is used to help control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a group of drugs called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists, which mimic the effects of a hormone called GLP-1. Liraglutide stimulates the release of insulin, helps reduce the production of glucose by the liver, and slows down digestion, resulting in better blood sugar control and potential weight loss.
