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 a GLP-1 RA, adding glargine 300 to the ongoing GLP-1 RA improved fasting blood glucose more than switching to iDegLira (degludec plus liraglutide).

    In plain wordsIn adults with type 2 diabetes, adding basal insulin to an ongoing GLP-1 drug lowered fasting glucose more than switching to a fixed insulin-liraglutide product.

    A retrospective comparative effectiveness analysis of the add-on of glargine 300 U/mL (Gla-300) to ongoing GLP-1 RA vs. switch to fixed ratio combination of degludec and liraglutide (iDegLira) was performed.

    In this study, Liraglutide was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Liraglutide.

    In adults with type 2 diabetes, HbA1c reductions were larger with glargine 300 plus a GLP-1 RA than with iDegLira only as a trend, without statistical significance.

    In plain wordsIn adults with type 2 diabetes, HbA1c fell somewhat more with insulin added to a GLP-1 drug than with a fixed product, but not significantly.
