Weight Trajectory in New Users of Sulfonylureas as Add on Therapy Next to Metformin. (ZODIAC-39)

Next to HbA1c, body weight is regarded as an important surrogate end-point in trials investigating glucose-lowering agents. An increase in weight could contribute to worsening insulin resistance. Differences in weight after starting glucose lowering agents have been described in many randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

With this prospective observational study, weight trajectories after receiving add-on therapy next to metformin are evaluated in primary care patients with good glycaemic control.
