GLP-1 receptor agonist branded as Byetta (twice daily) and Bydureon (weekly extended-release); one of the first commercial incretin mimetics for type 2 diabetes. In the Peppy catalog, Exenatide is a pen injection, dosed in mcg, typically twice daily, with a listed half-life of about 2.4 hours.

## Frequently asked

### How long does Exenatide stay in your system?

The Peppy catalog lists a half-life of about 2.4 hours for Exenatide. After roughly five half-lives, about 12 hours, most of a single dose has cleared. That is an estimate from the half-life, not a measurement, and individual clearance varies.

### Can I track Exenatide in Peppy?

Yes. Exenatide is one of 123 compounds built into Peppy, with its form, unit and typical frequency prefilled. Add it as a protocol, set your schedule, and Peppy handles the countdown, the log and the reminders (Pro).

### Where should I inject Exenatide?

Follow your prescriber's instructions. For subcutaneous shots the GLP-1 labels list the abdomen, thigh and upper arm and say to rotate. Peppy's body map has 13 sites, suggests the next one, and shows when each was last used. Read the [site rotation guide](https://peppytracker.com/guides/injection-site-rotation/).
