Coformulations are a novel pharmaceutical development in diabetology. They are composed of two medicinal products, both of which maintain their distinct pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. Currently available coformulations include combinations of basal and rapid-acting insulin, and basal and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA). This review describes three coformulations which are in advanced stages of development, or are approved in certain markets. We discuss the basic and clinical pharmacology of these drugs, while describing clinical usage of the commercially available insulin degludec aspart (IDegAsp).Electronic supplementary material: The online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s13300-015-0106-2) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
