This is an old revision of this page, as it stood at 04:47, 12 Apr 2025, saved by PriorAuthPaz with the summary split the list at the point where the subject changes. It may differ substantially from the current revision, and any error it contains may since have been corrected.
List of GLP-1 receptor agonistsReference material
ScopeAgonists at the GLP-1 receptor, alone or with others
ExcludedDPP-4 inhibitors, which raise endogenous hormone
List infobox · conventions

This list enumerates agonists at the GLP-1 receptor, including those that also engage other receptors of the glucagon-secretin family. DPP-4 inhibitors are excluded: they raise endogenous incretin concentrations rather than agonising the receptor directly. See Dipeptidyl peptidase-4.[1]

Status is given as approved or investigational without specifying jurisdiction, since approval differs between countries. See Regulatory status by jurisdiction.[2]

Compounds appearing here are covered by their own articles where one exists. Inclusion is not an endorsement, and several entries are investigational compounds not approved anywhere.[3]

GLP-1 receptor agonists

The list spans three architectures: exendin-derived peptides, acylated GLP-1 analogues, an Fc fusion, and a non-peptide small molecule. See GLP-1 receptor agonist for how each solves the half-life problem.[1]

Multi-receptor agonists

CompoundReceptorsStatus
TirzepatideGIP, GLP-1Approved
SurvodutideGlucagon, GLP-1Investigational

These are treated at Dual incretin agonist and Triple agonist. Their receptor ratios are fixed by chemistry and are not comparable between publications, since reported potencies are assay-dependent.[1]
