Amylin vs GLP-1 receptor agonists GLP-1 agonists (semaglutide, liraglutide): Mechanism: GLP-1 receptor activation Primary site: Hypothalamus (arcuate nucleus) Gastric emptying: Moderate delay Weight loss: 10-15% monotherapy FDA approved: Yes (Wegovy, Saxenda) Amylin agonists (cagrilintide): Mechanism: Amylin receptor activation Primary site: Brainstem (area postrema) Gastric emptying: Strong delay (more than GLP-1) Weight loss: 10-12% monotherapy FDA approved: Not yet (Phase 3) Head-to-head comparison: Why combine GLP-1 + Amylin: Different receptor pathways Different brain sites Complementary not redundant Synergistic weight loss (15-25% combined) CagriSema proves this works See our semaglutide vs tirzepatide , semaglutide dosage calculator , and tirzepatide dosing guide
