What is the difference between Liraglutide and Semaglutide?

Both Liraglutide and Semaglutide belong to the group of GLP-1 analogs. They resemble a naturally occurring gut hormone which lowers blood sugar, reduces appetite, and increases feelings of fullness. Both substances promote weight loss, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. You can read more about these medications on the electronic medicines compendium.
