More than 28.7 million individuals throughout the globe suffer from diabetes mellitus, with an estimated 11 percent of the population living with the condition in India. Changes in lifestyle and a variety of treatment plans are used in management. Metformin is a key drug for glycemic control, both when used alone and in combination. Our research compares the effectiveness of glycemic control achieved by empagliflozin plus sitagliptin.
This study took place from November 2022 to April 2023 at the tertiary care hospital. The study did not begin until the ethical review was completed. There were two groups of patients, A and B. Everyone received a daily dose of Metformin 1,000 milligrams. Sitagliptin (50 mg twice daily) was administered to individuals in Group A, whereas Empagliflozin (10 mg once daily) was given to those in Group B. After three months of therapy, HbA1c was used to compare the two groups’ levels of glycemic control to those at the start of treatment. To do this, we employed a proforma. Version 25 of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS Inc., Chicago, USA) was used for the analysis.
