lüll Statement by an American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists/American College of Endocrinology consensus panel on type 2 diabetes mellitus: an algorithm for glycemic control Rodbard HW; Jellinger PS; Davidson JA; Einhorn D; Garber AJ; Grunberger G; Handelsman Y; Horton ES; Lebovitz H; Levy P; Moghissi ES; Schwartz SSEndocr Pract 2009[Sep]; 15 (6): 540-59This report presents an algorithm to assist primary care physicians, endocrinologists, and others in the management of adult, nonpregnant patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In order to minimize the risk of diabetes-related complications, the goal of therapy is to achieve a hemoglobin A1c (A1C) of 6.5% or less, with recognition of the need for individualization to minimize the risks of hypoglycemia. We provide therapeutic pathways stratified on the basis of current levels of A1C, whether the patient is receiving treatment or is drug naive. We consider monotherapy, dual therapy, and triple therapy, including 8 major classes of medications (biguanides, dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 inhibitors, incretin mimetics, thiazolidinediones, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, sulfonylureas, meglitinides, and bile acid sequestrants) and insulin therapy (basal, premixed, and multiple daily injections), with or without orally administered medications. We prioritize choices of medications according to safety, risk of hypoglycemia, efficacy, simplicity, anticipated degree of patient adherence, and cost of medications. We recommend only combinations of medications approved by the US Food and Drug Administration that provide complementary mechanisms of action. It is essential to monitor therapy with A1C and self-monitoring of blood glucose and to adjust or advance therapy frequently (every 2 to 3 months) if the appropriate goal for each patient has not been achieved. We provide a flow-chart and table summarizing the major considerations. This algorithm represents a consensus of 14 highly experienced clinicians, clinical researchers, practitioners, and academicians and is based on the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists/American College of Endocrinology Diabetes Guidelines and the recent medical literature.|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Algorithms[MESH]|Blood Glucose Self-Monitoring[MESH]|Blood Glucose/*analysis[MESH]|Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2/blood/*drug therapy/physiopathology[MESH]|Drug Therapy, Combination[MESH]|Glycated Hemoglobin/*analysis[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hyperglycemia/drug therapy/prevention & control[MESH]|Hypoglycemia/prevention & control[MESH]|Hypoglycemic Agents/adverse effects/pharmacology/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Risk Assessment[MESH]|Young Adult[MESH] |
