Liraglutide is an acylated analog of human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) with 97% amino acid sequence homology to native GLP-1. A C-16 fatty acid chain enables albumin binding, extending its half-life to approximately 13 hours for once-daily dosing. Approved for both type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management.

Liraglutide is a modified GLP-1 analog with 97% homology to native human GLP-1, featuring a palmitoyl side chain for extended duration of action.
It activates GLP-1 receptors to enhance insulin secretion, suppress glucagon, slow gastric emptying, and promote satiety, with effects dependent on blood glucose levels.
Our Liraglutide is manufactured to ≥98% purity with full COA documentation.
Liraglutide requires daily dosing (13-hour half-life) vs. Semaglutide's weekly dosing (7-day half-life), but both are effective GLP-1 agonists with different pharmacokinetic profiles.
Store lyophilized Liraglutide at -20°C. Reconstituted material should be refrigerated at 2-8°C.
