A non-randomized, open labeled, non-comparative, single-centric, study was conducted in total of 20 type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients (9 men and 11 women, mean age 69.07 ± 3.495 years). Each patient was administered a fi xed dose combination of voglibose 0.3mg and repaglinide 0.5/1mg three times a day, just before each meal for 30 days. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) and postprandial blood glucose (PPBG) was performed at baseline and at the end of study as assessment tools. At the end of study data was extractable only in 15 patients because 5 patient dropped out as they did not turn up for follow up at day 30.Postprandial blood glucose reduced signifi cantly {-61.67mg/dl (95% confi dence interval -76.79 to -46.54 p<0.0001)} from baseline at day 30. Also a signifi cant reduction (p<0.0001) was found with FBG {-42.13mg/dl (Confi dence interval -61.25 to -23.02 P value <0.0001)} at end of day 30.

  • Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus
    TREATMENT OF DIABETES MELLITUS DIABETES is a condition that affects how the body makes energy from food. Food is broken down into sugar (glucose) in the body and released into the blood. When the blood sugar level rises after a meal, insulin responds to let the sugar into the cells to be used as energy. In diabetes, the body either does not make enough insulin or it stops responding to insulin as well as it should. This results in sugar staying in the blood and leads to serious health problems over time. DIAGNOSIS OF DIABETES1 • A1C Test: Lab test measuring average blood sugar over past two to three months • Fasting Blood Sugar Test: Lab test measuring blood sugar after eight hours of no food or drink • Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): Measures blood sugar before and two hours after drinking a specific sugary liquid • Random Blood Sugar Test: Measures blood sugar at a moment in time, without any kind of preparation (like fasting) FASTING BLOOD ORAL GLUCOSE TOLERANCE RANDOM BLOOD RESULT A1C TEST SUGAR TEST TEST SUGAR TEST Diabetes ≥ 6.5% ≥126 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL Prediabetes 5.7 – 6.4% 100 – 125 mg/dL 140 – 199 mg/dL N/A Normal < 5.7% ≤99 mg/dL < 140 mg/dL N/A NON-DRUG TREATMENTS2 THERAPY COST WHAT TO EXPECT Diet (Mediterranean diet) and exercise (30 minutes a day, five days a week of moderate- Weight loss $-$$ intensity exercise); 7% weight loss decreases risk of diabetes3 Psychological intervention $$-$$$ Psychotherapy may reduce diabetic distress and improve glycemic control4,5 nationalcooperativerx.com PRESCRIPTION TREATMENTS

After pre- formulation studies fast dissolving tablets were prepared by direct compression method; which shows instant drug release and % CDR of glimepiride fast dissolving tablet was found to be 70.81%. polymer plug have lag time 2.30 hr, chitosan coated miglitol beads shows sustained release upto 81.66% .this system is evaluated using different physicochemical parameters and in-vitro studies. Result suggests that the system can be applicable for diabetes treatment. Key words: Pulsatile, microbeads, sustained release, miglitol, glimepiride. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Oral controlled drug delivery systems represent the most popular form of controlled drug delivery system which release the drug with constant or variable release rates.[1] Dose of drug, reduced dosage frequency, avoidance of side effects, and improved patient compliance. However, there are certain conditions for which such a release pattern is not suitable. These conditions demand release of drug after a lag time. In other words, it is required that the drug should not be released at all during the initial phase of dosage form administration.

  • Effect of the Α-Glucosidase Inhibitor Miglitol on the Glucose Profile in Japanese Type 2 Diabetic Patients Receiving Multiple Daily Insulin Injections
    Endocrine Journal 2012, 59 (4), 345-352 ORIGINAL Effect of the α-glucosidase inhibitor miglitol on the glucose profile in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients receiving multiple daily insulin injections Hiroyuki Kato, Akio Ohta, Suzuko Kobayashi, Satoshi Ishii, Yukiyoshi Sada, Hidetoshi Kobayashi, Shintaro Ohmori, Akihiko Kondo, Takuyuki Katabami, Junro Fuse, Hisashi Fukuda, Yoshio Nagai and Yasushi Tanaka Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Metabolism and Endocrinology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan Abstract. Strict postprandial glycemic control may have a preventive effect on atherogenesis in patients with type 2 diabetes. The α-glucosidase inhibitor (α-GI) miglitol is useful for controlling the early postprandial increase of glucose, but the combined effect of miglitol and multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) on glucose excursion has not been evaluated. First, we retrospectively compared the daily glucose profile, evaluated by self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) at nine times on the day before discharge from hospital, between type 2 diabetic patients receiving MDI (n=81) or MDI plus miglitol at 150 mg daily (n=24). Second, we prospectively examined the effect of adding miglitol to MDI on the daily glucose profile (SMBG) in 19 other type 2 diabetic patients. Although the daily insulin dosage and the glucose level before meals did not differ between the two groups, the 1-h postprandial glucose level after each meal, 2-h glucose level after lunch and dinner, mean and standard deviation of glucose, and amplitude of glucose excursion were significantly lower or smaller in the MDI plus miglitol group than in the MDI group.

  • Diabetes Recommendations and Tier Coverage Chart
    DIABETES RECOMMENDATIONS AND TIER COVERAGE CHART The American Diabetes Association guidelines for 2020, recommend metformin as the preferred initial treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) along with weight management and physical activity. In patients who have established ASVD or at high risk, CKD, or HF, a SGLT2i or GLP-1 receptor with proven efficacy is recommended independent of A1C. • ASCVD dominates: o GLP-1RA with proven CVD benefit (dulaglutide, liraglutide, injectable semaglutide) OR o SGLT2i with proven CVD benefit (canagliflozin, empagliflozin) if adequate eGFR • HF or CKD dominates: o SGLT2i with evidence of reducing HF and/or CKD progression (empagliflozin, canagliflozin, dapagliflozin) if adequate eGFR OR o If SGLT2i intolerant/contraindicated or eGFR is inadequate, then GLP-1RA with proven CVD benefit In individuals without established cardiovascular disease, pharmacological treatment should be patient-centered taking into account side-effects, cost, impact on weight, risk of hypoglycemia, and other patient preferences.
