Mechanism of action

JK-1201I activates glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors, which enhance insulin secretion in response to glucose, slow gastric emptying, and promote satiety. As a long-acting formulation, it provides sustained therapeutic effects with less frequent dosing compared to shorter-acting GLP-1 agonists, making it suitable for chronic management of type 2 diabetes and obesity.
