Victoza (Liraglutide) Overview:
- Liraglutide: A GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist. It works by increasing insulin secretion, decreasing glucagon secretion, and slowing gastric emptying victoza solution tablets, which helps to control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes.
- Forms Available:
- Injection Solution: Victoza is administered as a subcutaneous injection, usually once daily. It comes in a pre-filled pen that is easy to use.
Tablets:
- Victoza Tablets: Liraglutide is not available in tablet form because it is a peptide, which would be broken down in the digestive system and rendered ineffective if taken orally. Instead, it is administered via injection to ensure proper absorption and efficacy.
