Notes : With the exception of dulaglutide, these medications are low molecular weight lipid-soluble molecules (less than 5kDa) with a long half-life that are expected to pass through the BBB, in contrast to native GLP-1, which is degraded by peptidase in approximately 5 minutes after being absorbed into the bloodstream

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) uniquely targets both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, potentially offering more substantial weight reduction and improved glycemic control compared to other GLP-1RAs that only target the GLP-1 receptor, such as Ozempic (semaglutide)
