Efficacy and safety of liraglutide added to insulin therapy in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes.

Introduction The combination of GLP‐1 receptor agonists and insulin is effective in type 2 diabetes (T2D) treatment. However, its longitudinal efficacy and safety in elderly patients have not been established. We evaluated whether liraglutide (Lira) added to insulin therapy safely improved glycaemic control in T2D patients aged >65 years.
