Byetta Injection - TuDiabetes

tudiabetes.org — “Hi - I am new to using Byetta, 5mcg. My last A1C was 5.7 with no meds and my Endo put me on Byetta and Metformin. I wanted aggressive treatment. I am 115 lbs (5'6 ), T2 (Not LADA or 1.5 but genetic) and find it using the Byetta needles kinda painful. I usually inject around the belly area using the smallest needle which I think is 33 or 31 gauge. It hurts especially when I click the pen all the way. Is there a less painful way to inject? I inject at a 45 degree angle and have tried various partsView full resource at tudiabetes.org

Delayed Stomach Issues with Byetta - TuDiabetes

tudiabetes.org — “I started Byetta about two and a half weeks and was thankful that I didn't experience any side effects. Well, I guess the honeymoon is over because I've been nauseous for the last 3 days. And today it felt like there was a campfire burning in my stomach. TUMS and other antacids were no help either. For some reason diet coke seemed to help though. So I've decided to cut down to only one 5mg dose a day until I feel better. We'll see how the rest of the week goes.View full resource at tudiabetes.org
