Key findings: Prescribing trends Using a subset of real-world electronic health record (EHR) data from Truveta, Truveta Research identified people who were prescribed a GLP-1 RA between January 01, 2018 and December 31, 2024
Earlier generations of GLP-1 medicines such as exenatide, liraglutide, dulaglutide, and semaglutide function solely as GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists
While compounding pharmacies were temporarily permitted to create semaglutide formulations similar to Ozempic, they must stop production now that the Ozempic and Wegovy shortage has been lifted
