  • Impaired liver function, defined as alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) above or equal to 2.5 times upper normal range (UNR)
  • Impaired renal function defined as serum-creatinine above or equal to 133 micromol/L (above or equal to 1.5 mg/dL) for males and above or equal to 125 micromol/L (above or equal to 1.4 mg/dL) for females, or as defined according to local contraindications for metformin
  • Screening calcitonin above or equal to 50 ng/L
  • Proliferative retinopathy or maculopathy (macular oedema) requiring acute treatment, according to investigator's clinical judgment
  • Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2)
