Question in the title really. My dn says I should inform the dvla of a change in medication. Do I really? Victoza isn't insulin, and she says I can't have hypos.
So experts what's the answer? I'm hoping she's wrong.


GRRR, don't you just hate predictive text!!! How socks came up instead of dvla I'll never know, tried to edit but will only let me edit text.

If you are taking other medication to reduce blood sugar such as sulfonylurea then risk of a hypo is increased but I believe as you say T2s not on blood sugar reducing medication are not required to inform socks. Sorry DVLA.

Made me smile :) If you want to edit the title there's an "edit title" button or linky at the top of the thread somewhere, it looks different on my phone to on my pc though.

Edit: click on Thread Tools then Edit Title.

Edit: just realised you probably already knew that.. sorry.

@dawnmc If it was me I wouldn't change it even if I could predictive text some times has a touch of genius and humour. :)

Thanks, I'm not on anything other than victoza, so socks can sod off.
