摘要

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) emerged as a promising class of drugs and have been shown to be effective as a key regulator in managing glucose metabolism-associated diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular effects, nephrological complications, diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD), as well as to control obesity. A few drugs included in GLP-1RA class are liraglutide, exenatide, and semaglutide. Most recent drug that is available in both oral and subcutaneous forms is semaglutide. Available, withdrawn, and investigational GLP-RAs are listed in this paper. This review article will also explore common side effects and safety profiles of both long-acting and short-acting GLP-1 RAs. Additionally, it will highlight the recent advances and ongoing challenges in the field of drug discovery related to GLP-1 receptor agonists.
