These GLP-1 receptor agonists can be categorized as either short-acting compounds, which provide short-lived receptor activation (such as exenatide and lixisenatide) or as long-acting compounds (for example albiglutide, dulaglutide, exenatide long-acting release, and liraglutide), which activate the GLP-1 receptor continuously at their recommended dose
These effects result in very significant weight loss (15-20% of initial body weight), i.e., of the same order of magnitude as that obtained by bariatric surgery
For example, pairing GLP-1 receptor agonists with targeted dietary interventions or microbiome-focused therapies might enhance outcomes
