What this trial is about
The goal of this prospective, multicenter, observational study is to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and safety of oral and subcutaneous semaglutide in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Argentina. The main objective is to assess changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline to 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment initiation. Secondary objectives include evaluating changes in body weight, waist circumference, hand-grip strength, treatment satisfaction, medication adherence, treatment route switching, treatment discontinuation, and adverse events. Participants will receive semaglutide as prescribed by their treating physician as part of routine clinical care. Follow-up assessments will be performed at 3, 6, and 12 months to collect clinical, laboratory, safety, treatment satisfaction, and adherence data. Treatment satisfaction will be assessed using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ), and adherence will be assessed using the Simplified Medication Adherence Questionnaire (SMAQ).
