The purpose of the study is to collect information on how Rybelsus® works in people with type 2 diabetes and to see if Rybelsus® can lower their blood sugar levels. Participants will get Rybelsus® as prescribed to them by the study doctor. The study will last for about 34-44 weeks. Participants will be asked to complete questionnaires about how they take their Rybelsus® tablets. Participants will complete the questionnaires during their normally scheduled visit with the study doctor.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Patients will be treated with commercially available oral semaglutide according to local label and to routine clinical practice at the discretion of the treating physician. The decision to initiate treatment with commercially available oral semaglutide has been made by the patient/Legally Acceptable Representative (LAR) and the treating physician based on local label before and independently from the decision to include the patient in this study.

Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, change (DTSQc), relative treatment satisfaction
The DTSQc provides a measure of how satisfied participants are with their current diabetes treatment compared with previous treatment. It consists of 8 questions, which are to be answered on a Likert scale from -3 to +3 (-3 = much less satisfied now to +3 = much more satisfied now), with 0 (midpoint), representing no change. Six questions are summed to produce a Total treatment satisfaction score. The remaining two questions concern perceived frequency of hyperglycemia and perceived frequency of hypoglycemia, respectively. The DTSQc Total treatment satisfaction score ranges from -18 to +18, with higher scores associated with greater treatment satisfaction.

Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, status (DTSQs), change in absolute treatment satisfaction
The DTSQs items are scored on a 7-point graded response scale ranging from 6 to 0. Higher scores indicate higher levels of treatment satisfaction for DTSQs items.
