Clinicians treating patients with T2D need to know how to choose and optimally use incretin therapies that have activity against common comorbidities in T2D, including obesity and CVD. Over the past decade there have been several new classes of drugs developed for individuals with T2D and/or obesity. These agents can provide the means for improving a patient’s quality of life (QoL) and clinical outcomes, but it can take years before new treatments are adapted by HCPs in daily clinical practice. All too often, therapeutic inertia significantly delays needed treatment intensification, putting people with T2D at risk for poor outcomes.
This CMEO digital monograph serves to highlight the presentations of a 2-day educational activity, moderated by Timothy Garvey, MD, which focused on co-occurrence of obesity with elevated A1C and other cardiometabolic risk factors, applications of incretin therapy, and intensification strategies and therapies in the management of T2D.
