Brief Summary
The objectives is to compare the changes in body composition (primary objective), diabetes parameters, energy expenditure and energy intake between Insulin detemir (Levemir® - Novolin® 4 pen) and insulin glargine (Lantus® - Solostar®) both in combination with Metformin and insulin secretagogues (SU) between baseline and after 6 months of insulin therapy in 80 type 2 diabetic patients failing on oral diabetic agents .

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Type 2 diabetic patients who require basal (long-acting) insulin for the control of hyperglycemia according to the opinion of the investigator.
- Inadequate Glucose control: Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) percentage in the range of ≥ 7.5 - 12.0%
- Stable body weight for previous 3 months (± 5 kg).
- Structured exercise lower than 4 hours per week.
- Metformin ≥1.5 g/day
You may not qualify if:
- Any medical, social or geographic condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator would not allow safe or reliable completion of the protocol.

- Proliferative retinopathy/maculopathy requiring treatment
- Hypoglycemia unawareness or recurrent major hypoglycaemia
- Pregnancy and breast-feeding
- Unstable coronary artery disease
- Heart Failure as defined by class IV according to NYHA classification
- Recent (\< 6 months) history of myocardial infarction, stroke or T.I.A, ventricular arrhythmias, or unstable supra-ventricular arrhythmias.
