Byetta Review Summary

Byetta is a prescription medication used for the treatment of diabetes. While this medication is effective according to our reviewers at controlling your blood sugar levels and in some cases even help you lose weight, it can be expensive to purchase and since it is injections it can be inconvenient to use. Majikme says, "I have done quite well on this medicine and would recommend all Type 2 diabetics at least consider it if their blood sugars are spiking a lot or just climbing with no reason at all." Jamz says, "The fact that it is a medication that is injected makes it somewhat inconvenient, especially when traveling." To find a diabetes medication that is not injected, keep reading our Prescription Medication reviews for ideas of treatments to discuss with your doctor.

My husband was diagnosed with diabetes several years ago.  He has been on Byetta a couple of years now. He uses in combination with another diabetes medication and the combination has kept his diabetes under control. Intially, he had a little weight loss which was a very good thing, however, that...

My post dinner readings are generally below 100 and though I am needle phobic, this is painless. Early symptoms of nausea and muscle aches subsided in weeks. Best diabetes medication I've had.
