Exenatide & Liraglutide

[tuviya]

Hi people am new on this forum, I was wondering if anyone takes either of these meds for their diabetes ? If so is it stand alone treatment or part of a combination ?
Lastly how are you finding it ?

for a little over a year i used victoza it was excellent-doctor was amazed readings were in normal ranges-we were all very excited--then after all that time with no changes to my routine my readings started creeping up again, then after some time there were no real benefits from using liraglutide/victoza no one understood why but it just stopped being effective-needless to say it was very frustrating & as i tried earlier to go on insulin, on recommendation i then pushed for insulin as i wanted to stop jerking around with meds that didn't really have a lasting effect, more poor cells needed a break--on lantus 60units for about a month now and hoping finally to get normalized & also considering the newcastle diet lo cal.. will see--so i am reporting here that victoza was after all a big disappointment in the end.
