We review any prior experience with weight loss peptides or GLP-1 drugs, including what worked and what did not
Most injectable formulationssuch as semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy), dulaglutide (Trulicity), and liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda)can be administered at any time, regardless of meals

It has been reported to modulate fatty acid metabolism but its role in this respect remains unclear
Commonly prescribed GLP-1 medications in the UK include semaglutide (available as injectable Ozempic, Wegovy and oral tablet Rybelsus), dulaglutide (Trulicity), liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda), and exenatide (Byetta, Bydureon)
