  • Switch from Insulin Therapy to Intensive Combination Therapy with Pioglitazone and Other Oral Hypoglycemic Agents in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
    20 (696) 診療と新薬・第 52 巻 第7号(2015 年7月) SWITCH FROM INSULIN THERAPY TO INTENSIVE COMBINATION THERAPY WITH PIOGLITAZONE AND OTHER ORAL HYPOGLYCEMIC AGENTS IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES Masazumi FUJIWARA Department of Diabetes Medicine, Saijo Central Hospital, Ehime, Japan Abstract Aim: Insulin therapy is considered the final option for patients with progressive type 2 diabetes. This study investigated, whether reconverting patients from insulin therapy to oral medicine using thiazolidinedione pioglitazone is possible without further deterioration of glycemic control. Methods: One hundred sixty subjects (112 male and 48 female) aged 61.4 ± 13.8 years with an mean insulin dose of 28.3 ± 18.7 U/day, mainly using preprandial bolus dose of rapid- acting or ultra-rapid-acting insulin preparations, a duration of insulin therapy of 3.1 ± 1.0 years and an average hemoglobin A1c (A1c) of 9.9 ± 1.8% were switched from insulin therapy to combination therapy with pioglitazone and other oral hypoglycemic agents (biguanide, a-glucosidase inhibitor, and glinide). Results: During the observation period (3.2 ± 1.3 months), 113 patients (70.6%) treated with insulin injections (24.8 ± 14.3 U/day), could be successfully switched from insulin therapy to pioglitazone-based oral combination therapy. Their mean A1c significant decreased from 9.9 ± 2.0 to 6.2 ± 0.5%, and all patients could achieve A1c < 7.0%. Although the remaining 47 patients (29.4%) could not be successfully switched, their A1c significant decreased from 10.1 ± 1.47 to 7.4 ± 0.8% and their mean insulin dose significantly decreased from 36.7 ± 24.6 to 6.8 ± 10.1 U/day.
