Survodutide Research Guide
Full name: Survodutide (Dual GLP-1/Glucagon Agonist)
A dual agonist of GLP-1 and glucagon receptors being developed for obesity and MASH. Glucagon component provides added metabolic benefits through increased energy expenditure.
How Survodutide Works
Activates GLP-1 receptors to reduce appetite while glucagon receptor activation increases hepatic fat oxidation, energy expenditure, and amino acid catabolism.
