Abstract
Chronic hyperglycaemia in the progression of Diabetes type 2 requires the intensification of hypoglycaemic therapy with the use of a combination of several drugs. According to the international recommendations, in the choice of rational combined hypoglycaemic therapy, their effectiveness and minimization of undesirable effects, namely the risk of hypoglycaemia and weight gain, are of priority. An analogue of glucagon-like peptide‑1 — liraglutide as part of combined hypoglycaemic therapy with oral medicines or
insulin provides improved glycaemic control without increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia and weight gain. Taking into account these benefits of liraglutide, the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists and the American College of Endocrinology recommend its use as the first drug of the second line of therapy for Diabetes type 2. Conclusion. The clinical experience confirms the efficacy and safety of liraglutide (Victozа®) as part of combined glycaemic therapy in patients with Diabetes type 2, obesity and comorbidity.
