The GLP-1 receptor agonist class includes several medications: Semaglutide (brand names Wegovy for weight loss, Ozempic for diabetes) Liraglutide (brand names Saxenda for weight loss, Victoza for diabetes) Tirzepatide (brand name Zepbound for weight loss, Mounjaro for diabetes), which is technically a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist Dulaglutide (Trulicity, for diabetes) Tirzepatide deserves special mention because it targets both GLP-1 and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors
