What are the differences in GLP-1 medicines available in the UK?

GLP-1 Medicines1 September 2026
In the UK, several GLP-1 medicines are available, including Liraglutide (Victoza), Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy), and Dulaglutide (Trulicity). Each of these medications has slightly different dosing regimens, effectiveness, and side effects. For instance, Liraglutide is typically injected daily, while Semaglutide can be administered weekly. Dulaglutide also has a weekly dosing schedule. Efficacy can vary based on individual responses, and some may find one medication more suitable than another. It’s important to discuss these options with your healthcare provider to find the best fit for your diabetes management.
