1. Compare and contrast the current guideline approaches for the management of type 2 diabetes
2. Describe the pharmacological agents for Type 2 diabetes including long-term safety and efficacy outcomes
3. Construct patient-centered pharmacotherapy plans for patients with type 2 diabetes
High prevalence, cost, and mortality!

Patient-Centered Approach
A1c goal ≤ 6.5% for most patients
Preference given based on safety and efficacy
All agents for diabetes included
Initial therapy with metformin or dual therapy based on A1c
Avoid clinical inertia and both guidelines will lead to similar A1c control

What about cardiovascular
outcomes?
“The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommended today that manufacturers developing new drugs and biologics for type 2 diabetes provide evidence that the therapy will not increase the risk of such cardiovascular events as a heart attack. The recommendation is part of a new guidance for industry that applies to all diabetes drugs currently under development.”

Use a patient-centered approach when selecting pharmacotherapy agents
There is still no 2nd line agent clearly recommended after metformin therapy
Four new insulin products were released in 2015 focusing on concentrated products or new delivery systems
The evidence for treatment of type 2 diabetes is rapidly changing
