Trulicity (Dulaglutide)

Trulicity is a once-a-week injection that helps adults with type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar levels. It works with your body to produce more insulin when you need it and lowers the amount of sugar your liver makes. Trulicity is not insulin, but it can help keep your blood sugar levels stable.
