dc.description.abstractAim:The Aim of the present study is to analyze prescription pattern of the antihyperglycemic drugs in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methodology:The study included 620 T2DM out patients aged between 41 to 60 years. Sociodemographic data included mean age, educational status, marital status, duration of diabetes mellitus and BMI. Results:Women (54.8%) shared higher percentage in study population. Metformin (44.1%) was prescribed significantly in higher cases than other antihyperglycemic drugs. Glimepiride (30%) is second most common drug prescribed in monotherapy followed by glibenclamide (9.3%), gliclazide (6.6%) in treatment of T2DM. Conclusion:The prescription pattern study of antihyperglycemic drugs in T2DM can serve as a guide to clinicians to select the monotherapy drug, combination drugs and insulin preparations. The findings of current study also help to the phar-maceutical companies to understand the percentage of utilization of antidiabetic drugs before developing and mar-keting any new drug.en_US
