Abstract

Gastric emptying of a glucose drink was measured in people with type 2 diabetes given lixisenatide (20 μg/day or placebo) for 8 weeks. Intragastric retention at 240 min (2 (0−11)% vs 48 (3–97)%; P < 0.0001) was much greater with lixisenatide than placebo. Accordingly, lixisenatide may delay liquid gastric emptying markedly.
