How comparable are dulaglutide and semaglutide on the evidence available?

Details up front: dulaglutide · semaglutide.

I suspect the honest answer is that it depends, in which case I would like to know on what.

Assume I can obtain either option without difficulty, so availability is not the deciding factor.

Under what conditions does the answer flip?
