About Exenatide
The first approved GLP-1 mimetic—derived from Gila monster saliva peptide exendin-4.
Exenatide was isolated from the Gila monster and modified for human use. It lowers blood glucose and modestly reduces weight. Largely replaced by newer GLP-1 drugs but remains a reference point for the peptide drug class.
Where you will see Bydureon
