dc.description.abstractIntroduction: This study assumes significance as it compareshead on DPP-IV inhibitors along with other oral hypoglycemicagents with respect to glycemic and non-glycemic targets.Study was done to evaluate the DPP-IV inhibitors andother oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) either alone or incombination, with reference to glycemic targets like fastingplasma glucose (FPG), post prandial glucose (PPG) andglycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in type 2 diabetes mellitus.Material and Methods: This was an open labelledcomparative study and included 90 patients with Type 2 DM.These patients were divided into 3groups: Each group wascontaining 30 patients i.e. Group A: DPP-IV inhibitors (n=30); Group B: Oral hypoglycemic agents other than DPP-IVinhibitors (n= 30) and Group C: DPP-IV inhibitors + other oralhypoglycemic agents (n= 30). The patients were given drugson the basis of physician’s discretion, depending upon theglycemic of the patients at the time of presentation. A detailedhistory regarding age, sex, profession, duration of disease,treatment history, family history and personal history wastaken for each patient. After stabilization patients observed at0 weeks, 6 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks.Results: Mean duration of diabetes was 5.35±0.53 years, andthe mean age of onset of diabetes was 46.98±0.91years. Therewas no significant difference between the study groups withrespect to FPG, PPG, and HbA1c levels. The HbA1c showedsignificant improvement in each group at the end of studyperiod.Conclusion: In summary, this study showed that treatmentwith sitagliptin, either alone or in combination with other oralhypoglycemic agent led to clinically meaningful reductionsin HbA1c, FPG and PPG over a 24 week period. Sitagliptinpresents an alternative therapeutic strategy for patientswith type 2 diabetes and, in general, showed significantimprovements in glycemic control and is well tolerated,particularly with regard to weight change and hypoglycemia.en_US
