Good day,
Noted your question. Why did she stop Victoza. It is good drug in Type 2 diabetes mellitus along with Metformin. Please get an Hbaic, Fasting blood glucose, creatinine,Liver function test , Lipid profile and Urine albumin tests to decide the best choice of drug in her. If her kidney and liver function are normal, my first choice would be a combination of Victoza and Metformin. In addition, she need a diet counseling and exercise plan.
