Diabetes can control blood sugar.

Diabetes patients can use a variety of drugs under the guidance of doctors to control blood sugar, such as sulfonylurea drugs, glinide drugs, alpha glucosidase inhibitors, etc.

1. Sulfonylurea drugs such

as glimepiride, etc. by stimulating islet beta cells to secrete insulin to lower blood sugar. Suitable for patients with islet function, but may lead to weight gain and hypoglycemia risk.

2. Glinide drugs such

as repaglinide. The mechanism of action is similar to sulfonylurea, but the onset of action is faster, the action time is shorter, can better control postprandial blood sugar, hypoglycemia risk is relatively low.

3. Alpha glucosidase inhibitors such

as acarbose. Can delay the absorption of carbohydrates in the intestine, mainly reduce postprandial blood sugar, common adverse reactions are gastrointestinal flatulence, etc.
