Q: Is Byetta the best form of treatment for overtly obese diabetics or insulin resistance patients?
A:Yes, Byetta is one of the best drugs for obese type 2 diabetes. Except cost and injection form, it is certainly a good option. It is useful if pancreatic beta cells are present; hence in early stages of disease it is useful.
