UKPDS Conclusions
• Despite an early loss of glycemic differences, a
continued reduction in microvascular risk and
emergent risk reductions for MI and death were
observed during 10 years of post-trial follow-up
Pharmacologic Management of
Type 2 Diabetes
• If glycemic targets are not achieved within 2 to 3
months of lifestyle management, pharmacotherapy
should be initiated.
• Timely adjustments should be made to attain target
A1C within 6 to 12 months.
• In patients with marked hyperglycemia (A1C ≥ 9.0%),
pharmacotherapy should be initiated concomitantly
with lifestyle management, and consideration be given
to either combination therapy or insulin.

4T trial
 Three quarters of patients added a second insulin
 Those commencing therapy with a basal or prandial
insulin more often achieved glycaemic targets than
patients commencing with a biphasic insulin
 Patients commencing therapy with basal insulin had
fewer hypoglycaemic episodes and less weight gain
These findings provide clear evidence in people with
type 2 diabetes to support starting insulin therapy
with a once a day basal insulin, and then adding
a mealtime insulin if glycaemic targets are not met
