Session Description: There is growing evidence to support benefits of antidiabetic therapy beyond glycemic lowering. Recent guidelines include consideration of underlying comorbidities including obesity, renal, cardiovascular, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in individualizing treatment regimens for our patients. Our colleagues in cardiology and nephrology have also begun to prescribe these medications for risk modification beyond glycemic control. A thorough understanding of the evidence to support recent guidelines is essential to designing treatment regimens to successfully achieve glycemic targets while modifying the risk associated with comorbid conditions.
