Intervention / TreatmentIntervention / Treatment |
|---|---|
|
Active Comparator: Exenatide inpatient
Patients with Type 2 Diabetes treated with diet, oral antidiabetic drugs, or with low-dose insulin will receive exenatide (Byetta®) twice daily.
Supplemental (correction) doses of rapid-acting insulin analogs will be given for blood glucose levels > 140 mg/dL per the sliding scale.
|
Exenatide is dispensed via a 1.2 mL prefilled pen with 250 mcg/mL solution for subcutaneous (s.c.) injection and will be administered twice daily starting at 5 mcg per dose, either in the abdomen, thigh or upper arm.
Exenatide injections will be given within 60 minutes prior to morning and evening meals (or before the two main meals of the day, approximately 6 hours or more apart between doses).
The exenatide dose will be increased to 10 mcg twice daily after 1 month based on clinical response.
Other Names:

|
Active Comparator: Exenatide plus glargine insulin inpatient
Patients with Type 2 Diabetes treated with diet, oral antidiabetic drugs, or with low-dose insulin will receive exenatide twice daily and glargine once daily.
Glargine insulin will be given once daily at the same time.
Supplemental (correction) doses of rapid-acting insulin analogs will be given for blood glucose levels > 140 mg/dL per the sliding scale.
