Head-to-head studies

No direct head-to-head trials between Liraglutide and Semaglutide in our corpus. The comparison below is indirect — based on separate Liraglutide and Semaglutide studies. Indirect comparisons can mislead; treat the "where they differ" section as hypothesis-generating rather than definitive.
