SLC5A2 and diabetes mellitus: To minimize the potential for differences in diabetes duration or severity that may influence ADM prescribing decisions, we restricted our analysis to patients who had only taken metformin before starting one of the follow index medication classes: SFU, BI, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, or thiazolidinediones (TZD).
