Type 2 Diabetes | Treatment Algorithms | Claims Data Analysis | US | 2020
Metformin and sulfonylureas are the most heavily prescribed type 2 diabetes drugs and dominate the early lines of therapy, before disease progression requires insulin replacement. The emergence of more-effective, safer, and/or better-tolerated therapies, such as the sodium glucose contransporter-2 (SLGT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, have provided physicians with a broad array of therapeutic options. Moreover, with better understanding of type 2 diabetes and its complications, individualization of treatment is becoming more common. Numerous branded agents from both established and recently emergent classes are now jostling for position in the treatment paradigm.
