Liraglutide Efficacy on Glucocorticoid Induced Hyperglycemia in Patients High Risk for Diabetes

Summary

Glucocorticoids therapy exposes the patient to an increased risk for diabetes morbidity. However, there is no proven preventive therapy. GLP-1-RA has shown to improve glucose metabolism in healthy volunteers treated with glucocorticoids. We assume that GLP-1-RA will improve glucose metabolism in patients with high risk for diabetes morbidity, treated with glucocorticoids.
