Is Trulicity the same as dulaglutide?

Yes. Trulicity is the brand name for dulaglutide, the once-weekly GLP-1 drug this site's profile lists as another name. It is approved for type 2 diabetes. REWIND included 9,901 people, only about a third of whom already had heart disease. Over about 5.4 years (the middle value), major heart events happened in 12.0% on dulaglutide versus 13.4% on a dummy shot. AWARD-6 found weekly dulaglutide 1.5 milligrams worked about as well as daily liraglutide 1.8 milligrams on long-term blood sugar (HbA1c) at 26 weeks, in 599 people. People do lose some weight, but usually less than with semaglutide or tirzepatide in their own separate studies. This site does not rank the brands. Full record at /compounds/dulaglutide.

Part of glp-1 and metabolic peptides. Semaglutide, tirzepatide, retatrutide, and the rest of the incretin and glucagon receptor family.
