Cost Effectiveness of Liraglutide in Type II Diabetes: A Systematic Review

PharmacoEconomics, 2014, vol. 32, issue 11, 1079-1091

Abstract: The current literature presents liraglutide as a cost-effective adjunct treatment for type II diabetes that may also be associated with a reduction in diabetes-related complication costs; however, ICER values are largely dependent on assumptions regarding the benefits of long-term liraglutide treatment and the time horizon of the analysis. Real-world use may make liraglutide unattractive from a payer and policy-maker perspective. Copyright Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2014
