Basal insulin offers glycemic control even while fasting and allows for individualized dosing but increases the risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain. This article discusses 1-year safety and efficacy data from the phase 3, open-label Dual Action of Liraglutide and Insulin Degludec in Type 2 Diabetes: A Trial Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Insulin Degludec/Liraglutide, Insulin Degludec and Liraglutide in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes [DUAL I].
