Abstract: |
Introduction Sitagliptin, an oral dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, and exenatide, an injectable glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, are incretin-based therapies for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study examined differences in baseline characteristics between patients with type 2 diabetes initiating sitagliptin vs. exenatide treatment in clinical practice settings in the US. |
