Overview
Brief Summary
Primary objective:
To compare long-term glycemic control and preservation of beta cell function when basal insulin or sulfonylurea is added on metformin in the early Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients
Secondary objective:
To assess the change of insulin resistance, microvascular complication incidence, patient satisfaction with treatment
