However, despite sharing many commonalities, they are not the same thing and do have some key differences
Exenatide (EC 50 = 0.60 nM, E max = 125%) and liraglutide (EC 50 = 1.8 nM, E max = 117%) were 380- and 130-fold more potent, respectively, and caused somewhat greater receptor internalization relative to PF-06882961 (Table S5)
A significant dose-dependent decrease in body weight from 7.5 to 12.9 kg was observed in the tirzepatide group, compared to a 2.3 kg increase in the insulin degludec group
Medical Perspective Priming a penbased delivery device clears air from the needle and confirms that the mechanism is functioning properly, so the first full dose isnt partially lost to air displacement
