What is Liraglutide ?

Liraglutide, marketed as Lirafit, is a medication approved for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). It belongs to a class of drugs known as GLP-1 receptor agonists. GLP-1 stands for “glucagon-like peptide-1,” which is a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels.

How Liraglutide Works ?

Liraglutide works by mimicking the effects of GLP-1 in the body. Here's how it helps manage diabetes:

Blood Sugar Control

Liraglutide stimulates the release of insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels after meals.

Appetite Regulation

Liraglutide stimulates the release of insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels after meals.

Slowing Digestion

Liraglutide slows down the emptying of the stomach, leading to a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels after meals.
