Hi,
Can you replace Insulin/ lantus/ with Byduren?

Was recently diagnosed as Type 2 diabetic. My original Glucose A levels were 11.2. Two weeks later (Feb 1) my A1C A level was measuring 10. I've changed my diet (following Dr Gundry food guide), no red meats, no dairy, mostly fish, chicken, turkey and lots of veggies/greens. Am down 16lbs so far (20 to go).

I like that it curbs your appetite, but it boosts me and makes me burp so bad. All day. So does anyone else have this problem?

Is anyone else having a problem with their Trulicity prescription? I have been unable to get Trulicity 4.5. I was able to get a 1.5 thru another pharmacy. It is very frustrating. I have been told that it is a national issue and may take several months to overcome.

My insurance has decided to make Victoza non-formulary so I'm having to switch to Bydureon. Is anyone using this? I've only been on Victoza for 5 mos and was doing pretty good with it, tho my morning nos have increased slightly. I've been able to decrease Lantus to just 6 units at bedtime and eliminate Novalog altogether. Did not lose any weight but still liked this med. I wish ns companies would not mess with what meds peoe can take.

My doctor wants me to start taking Bydureon injections. I haven’t read or heard too many good things from other people who have tried it and the side effects really worry me. Anyone on here currently or previously taken this medication? If so, what was your experience and did it help your diabetes?
