    Glycemia Reduction Approaches in Diabetes: A Comparative Effectiveness Study (GRADE) participants (with type 2 diabetes diagnosed for <10 years, on metformin, and with HbA1c 6.8-8.5%; N = 5,047) were randomly assigned to a basal insulin (glargine), sulfonylurea (glimepiride), glucagon-like peptide 1…

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Liraglutide was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Liraglutide.

    In adults with type 2 diabetes on metformin, no baseline factor was associated with differential effectiveness of the four medications by year 4.

    In plain wordsIn adults with type 2 diabetes, no baseline factor changed how well the four study drugs worked by year 4.
