Efficacy Evaluation of Different Medication Combination in Type 2 Diabetes Treatment
RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment
Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of two different kinds of diabetes medications, insulin detemir (Levemir) and exenatide (Byetta), in improving blood sugar levels with little or no weight gain in patients with type 2 diabetes who are not well controlled on two or more oral (by mouth) diabetes medications. Both medications are given by injection with a very small needle just below the surface of your skin (called subcutaneous injection). The medication that you inject will be in addition to your oral medications.
