Safety and Efficacy of Fixed Dose Combinations of Repaglinide and Voglibose tablets in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Phase 3

Brief Summary

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic, progressive metabolic disease defined by the presence of  chronic hyperglycemia. To overcome high failure rate of long-term monotherapy and progression of vascular complications developed due to postprandial glucose excursions, a combined therapy  of oral antidiabetic agents with complementary modes of action should be considered. Because of their complementary mechanism of actions, combination therapy with non-sulfonylurea insulin secretagogue (repaglinide) with alpha -glucosidase inhibitor (voglibose) will  will have synergistic action in patient with post prandial hyperglycemia. Considering this Phase III clinical trial has been  planned to evaluate safety and efficacy of fixed dose combinations of Repaglinide **+** Voglibose in patients with type 2 diabetes.
