Wegovy (semaglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that slows gastric emptying but does not significantly affect antibiotic absorption or efficacy

The molecule that emerged from this foundational work carried a disabling flaw as a therapeutic scaffold: native GLP-1 is degraded almost immediately by the serine protease dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which cleaves the peptide between residues 8 and 9 and confers a circulating half-life of under two minutes [4]

The SURPASS-2 trial (Frias et al., NEJM , 2021) directly compared tirzepatide to semaglutide 1 mg in patients with type 2 diabetes and found tirzepatide superior across all dose levels for both weight loss and glycemic control
