Rational Management of Diabetes type 2

Vanja Zjačić-Rotkvić

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus type 2 is a common disease
whose prevalence progressively rises with age. Besides
pathophyisiology and classification the article elaborates the
conventional and intensive therapeutic approach. Five orally
administered drug groups are today available. These groups
are extensively presented emphasizing at the same time the
fact that the prevention of complications is equally important
as drug taking for regulation of glycaemia.

Keywords
