Abstract

We analyzed the effects of pioglitazone coadministered reducing stimulators of insulin secretion on glucose and lipid metabolism, hypoglycemia episode frequency, and body weight in 109 outpatients with type 2 diabetes. A decrease in HbA1c of 0.5% or more was considered an effective response and HbA1c deterioration of 0.5% or more represented an invalid response, and the remaining were an invariable response to treatment. Treatment improved HbA1c from 6.9±0.9% (mean±SD) to 6.6±0.9%, with an effective response in 38.5%, an invalid response in 13.8%, and an invariable response in 47.7% of subjects. The three-month treatment improved insulin resistance, tripled the high-molecular-weight adiponectin serum level, significantly reduced low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, increased high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and tended to reduce serum triglycerid. Safety analysis showed a mild weight gain of 1.5 kg and no hypoglycemia episodes. Our results indicated that glucose control can be improved together with insulin resistance, hypoadiponectinemia, and lipid profile. Weight gain was suppressed and hypoglycemia episodes minimized using pioglitazone combined with reduced doses of insulin secretion stimulators in subjects with type 2 diabetes.<br>
