NCT00978263

Brief Summary

The investigators designed this prospective, randomized control study to compare the efficacy and safety between the basal insulin glargine therapy and metformin-based OADs after correction of the glucose toxicity with a short period of intensive insulin therapy.

Study Arms (2)

Glargine

EXPERIMENTAL

Initial basal Insulin therapy was according to the dose administrated at bedtime in the last day hospitalization. basal Insulin doses were titrated every 3 days to achieve target FPG values between 80 and 130 mg/dl.

Drug: Glargine

metformin-based Oral Antidiabetic Drugs

EXPERIMENTAL

Subject in metformin-based OAD group was visited every two weeks in the first month and the every four weeks for another five months. The subjects will start with Metformin 425mg bid, The dosage was titrated (up to 850mg bid) based on the fasting blood glucose every two weeks. If the patients fail to achieve the target, gliclazide-MR (Diamicron, Servier), or glimepiride (Amaryl, Sanofi-Aventis) would be added.

Drug: metformin-based Oral Antidiabetic Drugs
