    A cohort of 583 type 2 diabetic outpatients treated with a SGLT2 inhibitor and/or other anti-diabetic medications were examined.
    Summary · context
    Because patients had suboptimal glycemic control, the GLP1-RA Dulaglutide was added to ongoing medications.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Dulaglutide (Trulicity) 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 Dulaglutide (Trulicity).
