What role does an oral GLP-1 receptor agonist have in adults with Type 2 diabetes in primary care. A case based discussion.

This face to face session will help attendees understand the progressive nature of Type 2 Diabetes and the importance of glycaemic control, and also to understand the considerations for when is the right time to start an oral GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), receptor agonist treatment. The session will go onto explore relevant RYBELSUS ®▼ (semaglutide tablets) clinical data and the potential implications on adult Type 2 Diabetes care. 

Rybelsus is indicated for the treatment of adults with insufficiently controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycaemic control as an adjunct to diet and exercise, as monotherapy when metformin is considered inappropriate due to intolerance or contraindications, or in combination with other medicinal products for the treatment of diabetes.
