Yeah, other GLP-1 receptor agonists are expected to have similar effects. One of the effects of GLP-1 receptor activation is a reduction in the rate of gastric emptying. So it slows down digestion and gives you a full, satiated feeling. Guess the urge for some drugs is related to the urge for food and that's how it supresses drug use. But the last bit is speculation on my part.

I am curious if the benefits for alcohol addiction are from the reduction in appetite or reducing the actual dependence on alcohol. Either way still good to have another relative safe way to treat alcohol addiction.
