CVS Health Research Institute Study Finds Newly Diagnosed Diabetes Patients Less Likely to Need Treatment Intensification When Started on a Generic Drug
PR Newswire - Fri Oct 31, 7:30AM CDT
New research from CVS Health (NYSE: CVS) finds starting a new diabetes patient on metformin, a generic oral diabetes medicine that helps control blood sugar levels, reduced the need to add on additional treatments to control the condition over time. Although there are many classes of oral diabetes medications, there has historically been little evidence available on the comparative effectiveness of treatments to help patients and providers select an initial diabetes therapy. This new research indicates diabetes treatment with a low-cost generic drug can have significant, positive implications for a patient's quality of life and medication cost.
