Diabetic retinopathy complications: a signal for this was noted in SUSTAIN 6. Current evidence is mixed. The risk is not zero and some caution is appropriate in people with baseline retinopathy.

Concurrent insulin or sulfonylureas: not an absolute contraindication but requires dose adjustment and close monitoring for hypoglycemia. The combination is used with caution, not avoided.
