Antidiabetic drugs are drugs that act in different ways to treat diabetes mellitus. The indicator in the Swiss Atlas of Healthcare shows antidiabetic drugs dispensed by outpatient care providers and includes analyses of overall antidiabetic drug use as well as separate analyses of the most common groups of active ingredients. The drugs Wegovy and Saxenda are excluded because, according to the specialty list, they are intended for the treatment of obesity (see indicator for weight control).
