Abstract
We sought to determine whether treatment with tirzepatide in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients can increase the odds for achieving normoglycemia, compatible with glycated hemoglobin levels lower than 5.7 %. We demonstrated that treatment with tirzepatide versus control increased the odds for achievement of normoglycemia by >16 times.
