This is a fixed-ratio combination of insulin degludec (a long-acting basal insulin analog) and liraglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. The combination improves glycemic control with both insulin-dependent and insulin-independent mechanisms. It is approved in many countries and marketed under brand names such as Xultophy.
Pharmacokinetic parameters were studied in healthy subjects and subjects with type 2 diabetes. Parameters below are representative for single-dose administration in adult humans.
