Understanding Byetta andIts Role in Diabetes Management
Byetta is a synthetic version of exendin-4, a naturally eventring peptide found in Gila monster saliva. It mimimics the action of glucagon- like peptide-1 (GLP- 1), an incretin thathat stimulates insulin secretion in responsee to meals, supresses glucagon release, slow gastric emptying, and promotes satiety.
