My doctor has reccomended taking Byetta.
I am over weight and he said that it would help with my weight problem. I am currently taking Metformin,Actos & Glympride. would these meds be stopped? Do you take another diabetic meds? I am a little afraid of the injection part. Does it hurt how often do you take injection? DR49crap
