Byetta is also being trialed with Glucagon, in a once a week dosing format for weight loss. This combo is in animal testing right now.

I do know that Byetta is not doing well financially, for its maker, and there is a big push on the sales force now for it and many many samples.

So you will see it in the press more now than earlier.

Before going on this drug, here are some FDA reports collected from MedWatch:
