Amylin analogues are used to treat type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. These medications work by mimicking the hormone amylin, which helps to slow down the rate at which food leaves your stomach, reduce the amount of glucose your liver produces, and make you feel full sooner. Amylin analogues are available in injectable forms. An example of an amylin analogue is pramlintide (SymlinPen). This medication can help you manage your blood sugar levels more effectively when used alongside insulin.
