ABSTRACT
This is a work aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of the combination of metformin with glargine or with neutral protamine Hagedorn in treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Sixty such patients with poor glycemic control by oral antidiabetic drugs were included and divided into group A and group B. Thirty patients in group A were treated with glargine and metformin, and the other 30 patients in group B were treated with neutral protamine Hagedorn and metformin for 12 weeks. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG), postprandial glucose(PPG) and HbA1c were measured before and after the treatment. Hypoglycemia was also noted. At the end of the study, the levels of FPG, PPG and HbAlc were significantly lower than the baseline levels in the two groups (P < 0.05). At the 12th week, the percentage of HbAlc < 7% in group A was 53.3% and that in group B was 40.0%; statistically, there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). After the end of the treatment, there was no significant difference in that the percentage of HbA1c < 7% was 70.6% in group A and 62.5% in group B; the two groups' HbA1c levels were > or = 7%-9% at the baseline (P > 0.05). No sigificant difference in respect to the incidence rate of hypoglycemia in the two groups was noted (P > 0.05). In the cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycaemic control by oral antidiabetic drug, glucose and HbA1c can be lowered further by the combination of metformin with glargine or with neutral protamine Hagedorn, the incidence rate of hypoglycemia is low. Metformin plus glargine or plus neutral protamine Hagedorn is a safe and effective therapeutic choice for type 2 diabetes mellitus cases with poor glycaemic control; moreover, metformin plus neutral protamine is a cheaper and effective choice.
