Among a cohort of adults with recent type 2 diabetes prescribed metformin, those assigned to receive vildagliptin as an add-on therapy maintained better long-term glycemic control than those who continued on monotherapy, according to findings from the VERIFY trial presented at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes annual meeting and simultaneously published in The Lancet.
In addition, those participants who received vildagliptin earlier in treatment were more successful in maintaining HbA1c below 7% than those whose therapy was intensified with vildagliptin after metformin alone
