  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In adults with type 2 diabetes, the fall in endogenous glucose production with liraglutide alone was the same as before treatment, whereas canagliflozin attenuated it.

    In plain wordsIn adults with type 2 diabetes, liraglutide alone did not change how much glucose production fell, unlike canagliflozin.
