Hormonal
Pharmacological agents like liraglutide and dual agonists contribute to weight loss by retarding gastric emptying.
Incorporating GLP-1 agonists may enhance weight loss strategies.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Indeed, these effects provide the basis for the association of altered gastric emptying in the appetite and weight loss responses to pharmacological interventions particularly by those acting on receptors of incretin agonists such as liraglutide and the dual agonists, tirzepatide and cotadutide, all of which retard gastric emptying.
