Her struggle with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is about more than just glycemic control.1,2

Your help is more important than ever.

Excess weight is a key component of T2D pathophysiology and is associated with complications of T2D.2

Among patients with T2D, having excess weight has been associated with elevated A1C.3 There’s also a link between A1C and weight loss: lifestyle changes that lead to a reduction in excess weight have been associated with improvements in glycemic control.4

Now, take a closer look at the possibility of changing T2D outcomes and helping improve patients’ long-term health by controlling hyperglycemia as early as possible. Learn how addressing excess weight can support efforts to achieve glycemic control.5
