  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In adults with obesity after weight loss, liraglutide treatment did not change late-phase postprandial GLP-1 response versus placebo.

    Summary · context
    This study is an exploratory analysis of adults with obesity (n = 195) who lost 13.1 kg on a low-calorie diet and were randomized to 52 weeks of either usual activity, moderate-to-vigorous intensity exercise, the GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide (3.0 mg/day), or the combination.
    Summary · context
    The primary endpoint was change in late-phase GLP-1 response to a 3-h liquid mixed meal test before and after diet-induced weight loss and after 1 year of intervention.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Liraglutide was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Liraglutide.
