*Following 10 weeks of once-weekly dosing when the level of medicine in your body

BYDUREON BCise releases the medicine gradually and continually over time. With each weekly dose, the amount of medicine in your body builds up until it reaches an optimal level after 10 weeks, to help give you consistent control of your blood sugar 7 days a week.
BYDUREON BCise is a type 2 diabetes medicine that is slowly released into your body over time, working to help your body release its own insulin when it’s needed to help lower blood sugar.
With type 2 diabetes, a hormone called glucagon causes the liver to make sugar when it's not needed. BYDUREON BCise mimics the actions of GLP-1, a natural hormone, to help prevent the release of glucagon.
With type 2 diabetes, the stomach moves food along faster than it should, and that sends sugar into the blood faster. BYDUREON BCise works to slow down how quickly the stomach empties sending sugar into the bloodstream more slowly.
With type 2 diabetes, too little insulin is produced by the pancreas to keep blood sugar levels normal. BYDUREON BCise mimics the GLP-1 hormone to help your pancreas release insulin when blood sugar needs to go down.*
