A Study on Safety and Efficacy of Newer Anti-diabetic Drugs (Sitagliptin, Vildagliptin) in Type 2 Diabetes mellitus
Abstract
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus accounts for as much as 90% of all cases of diabetes mellitus. India leads the world with largest number of diabetes subjects earning the dubious distinction of being term the “Diabetes Capital of the world”. The present study was aimed to evaluate safe and effective management of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients by using newer anti-diabetic drugs. A total of 81 patients were interviewed; out of those, 41 patients were recruited as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. Then newer anti-diabetic drugs were administered to the patients. Then the patients were monitored closely for any changes and periodic estimation of blood glucose levels, and all the parameters had been taken on interval of once in a 30 days and followed up to 6 months. Both the drugs led to a significantly higher proportion of patients achieving the glycemic goal of HbA1c and lt; 7%, as well as baseline average values of FBS, RBS and PPBS are 167.43, 195.53, and 196.60 respectively; after 24 weeks of therapy, the above parameters showed significant reduction in glycemic levels as 135.21, 155.68 and 157.0 respectively. The short term usage of these drugs is safer but we cannot confirm that these are safe, and in attendance, it necessitates the prolong studies to be conventional and precise for safety and efficacy.
Keywords: Fasting blood sugar, glycated hemoglobin, post prandial blood sugar, random blood sugar, Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
