  • Self or family history of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN) type 2A or B, thyroid C-cell hyperplasia or medullary thyroid cancer, or a blood calcitonin result ≥20 picograms per milliliter (pg/ml) at screening.
  • A systolic blood pressure of ≥160 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) or diastolic ≥100 mmHg.
  • Active or treated cancer.
  • A blood disorder where an accurate HbA1c may not be obtainable.
  • A female of childbearing age, sexually active and not on birth control.
  • Pregnant or plan to be pregnant during the study, or breastfeeding.
  • Taking any diabetic medication other than metformin or basal insulin and have not stopped it 3 months prior to the screening visit (6 weeks for bolus or mealtime insulin).
  • Have taken oral steroids within the last 60 days or more than 20 days use within the past year or 1000 micrograms fluticasone propionate per day.
  • Using prescription weight loss medications in the last 30 days, or plan to use.
