- W3023924897 abstract "Abstract Background and aims: Achieving glycemic goals is crucial in the overall management of diabetes. Selecting the right medication for the individual patient is of paramount importance in the present day’s patient centric glucose control. Metformin is the first line and gold standard antihyperglycemic agent that can be offered to type 2 diabetics. Addition of a second or third agent or insulin should be considered in those whose HbA1c remains high despite the up-regulated metformin dose or those who do not tolerate metformin. We aimed to find the pattern of metformin use in type 2 diabetic subjects in a diabetes specialty centre in coastal Odisha. Materials and methods: This observational study was conducted in a diabetes setup in coastal Odisha in June 2018. After obtaining consent from patients, authors looked into the prescriptions of all type 2 diabetic adults. Subjects who were prescribed metformin (in any dose) were enrolled in the study. Those with established nephropathy, coronary artery disease, stroke or cancers were excluded. Results:There were 802 footfalls noted during the study period, of which 723 metformin taking participants (298 females, 41.2%) were considered for analysis (79 persons were excluded: not meeting inclusion criteria/ not willing to participate/ history of nephropathy/ CAD/ stroke). Mean age, diabetes duration, FPG, HbA1c, serum creatinine, eGFR of the study population were 51.6±10.6 years, 11.9±11.2 years, 138.7±51.7 mg/dl, 7.8±2.1%, 0.93±0.29 mg/dl and 96.5±11.1ml/min respectively. Patients were prescribed metformin in various doses, i.e., 500mg (42 patients, 5.8%), 850mg (47 patients, 6.5%), 1000mg (396 patients, 54.8%), 1500mg (13 patients, 1.8%), 1700mg (86 patients, 11.9%) and 2000mg (130 patients, 18.0%), and 2500mg (9 patients, 1.2%). Metformin was prescribed as monotherapy (n=34, 4.7%) or along with other OADs (n=589, 81.5%) or in combination with insulin (n=178, 24.6%). Retrospective analysis of the medical records and further questioning revealed that gastric intolerance was the commonest reason for withdrawal of metformin in otherwise eligible subjects. Conclusion: Metformin was the most commonly prescribed antidiabetic drug and the daily dose of more than 85% of the metformin administered individuals was 1000mg or above." @default.
