Watch for the First Oral GLP-1 Agonist, Rybelsus, During Transitions of Care
Semaglutide (Rybelsus, reh-BEL-sus) will be the first ORAL GLP-1 agonist for type 2 diabetes...it's a tablet version of injectable Ozempic.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is inactivated in the stomach.
That's why other GLP-1 agonists...dulaglutide (Trulicity), exenatide ER (Bydureon), liraglutide (Victoza), etc...are injected.
