Suppositories provide very similar results to IV methods of administration since the ingredients in the suppository are absorbed by the wall of the rectum and carried straight into the systemic circulation (circumventing the entero-hepatic portal system where ingredients are broken down)

As illustrated in Figure 2, pooled analyses of cardiovascular outcome trials have demonstrated that GLP-1 RAs reduce major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) by 14% (HR = 0.86, 95% CI 0.790.94) in patients with type 2 diabetes, with additional significant benefits including 13% reduction in cardiovascular death, 16% reduction in nonfatal stroke, and 10% reduction in hospitalization for heart failure [85]

The practical approach is to use a lower concentration (5mg/mL) for the first 8-12 weeks when precision matters most during introduction, then switch to a higher concentration (10-20mg/mL) as you move into higher doses
