If you're taking Trulicity

I just found out that because of my age (70) and income level, I qualify for getting Trulicity at no cost. I've done well on it and couldn't afford a price hike due to Medicare rules, so I went online to Eli Lilly, the manufacturer. Their foundation administers the program. Go to Eli Lilly Cares.com to find out more.

blood sugar levels.

Trulicity is used together with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Trulicity is not for treating type 1 diabetes."

I hope this answers the question in my title for other people since I had no idea what it was. Now I know that I don't need Trulicity since my Type 2 diabetes has been under control since the year 2000 mainly with diet alone.

I will point out that I could have used this time by posting ops in The Lounge about puppies and
kittens but then the day is young...

I first went to the Trulicity website but found it to be unusable so here's a link to the info I did use:
