How VICTOZA DISPOPEN Works
- VICTOZA DISPOPEN stimulates insulin secretion, suppresses glucagon release, and slows down gastric emptying, helping to regulate blood sugar levels and promote weight loss.
- VICTOZA DISPOPEN is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist that mimics the effects of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1. By binding to GLP-1 receptors in the pancreas, VICTOZA DISPOPEN enhances insulin secretion in response to elevated blood sugar levels, thereby lowering blood glucose. It also reduces the release of glucagon, a hormone that increases blood sugar levels, leading to further blood sugar control. VICTOZA DISPOPEN slows down the emptying of the stomach, which helps regulate appetite and promotes satiety, leading to reduced food intake and weight loss. Additionally, it acts on the hypothalamus in the brain, affecting the central regulation of appetite and energy expenditure.
