To assess the effect of liraglutide on carotid intima media thickness in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
Change from baseline measure of right carotid intima media thickness with doppler ultrasound at 6 months in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus who meet inclusion criteria.
Time frame: Baseline and 6 months
To assess the effect of liraglutide on cardiovascular risk factors, cardiometabolic markers (BMI, weight and abdominal circumference)
Somatometry: weight will be measured at baseline and every month until completing 6 months.
Time frame: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 months
