Previous treatment with short or rapid acting insulin other than for short term use (≤10 days) in relation to hospitalization or an acute illness in the last 6 months prior to screening.
Any discontinuation from a glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) due to safety/tolerability issue or lack of efficacy.
Patient not willing to perform self-monitored plasma glucose (SMPG) as required by protocol and to follow the instructions provided.
