Study population text

This study will involve a new user, parallel group, propensity score-matched, retrospective cohort design comparing injectable subcutaneous liraglutide (1.2 or 1.8 mg/day) to oral glimepiride (4 mg once daily). Treatments in both arms are administered in combination with metformin (up to 2,000 mg/day). Patients will be required to have continuous enrollment during a baseline period of 180 days before initiation of liraglutide or glimepiride. The analyses will be restricted to individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have been previously treated with antidiabetic drugs. In the replication, previous anti-diabetic treatment was defined as the presence of at least 2 prescriptions for metformin within 6 months before and including cohort entry.
