Exenatide, sold under the brand name Byetta among others, is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes.[7] It is used together with diet, exercise, and potentially other antidiabetic medication.[7] It is a treatment option after metformin and sulfonylureas.[8] It is given by injection under the skin.[7]

Common side effects include low blood sugar, nausea, dizziness, abdominal pain, and pain at the site of injection.[7] Other serious side effects may include medullary thyroid cancer, angioedema, pancreatitis, and kidney injury.[7] Use in pregnancy and breastfeeding is of unclear safety.[9] Exenatide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 receptor agonist) also known as incretin mimetics.[7] It works by increasing insulin release from the pancreas and decreases excessive glucagon release.[7]

Exenatide was approved for medical use in the United States in 2005.[7] In 2019, it was the 312th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 1 million prescriptions.[10]
