Description
Victoza liraglutide is a brand-name prescription medication that contains liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It’s an injectable medicine used for managing type 2 diabetes in adults and children (ages 10+). It helps improve blood sugar control and has additional benefits for heart health.
🔹 What Victoza Is Used For
-
Lowers blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes

Reduces risk of major cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke, or death) in adults with type 2 diabetes and existing heart disease
