Author: FischerS, HanefeldM, LeonhardtW, SchulzeJ, SpenglerM

Clinical TrialA clinical trial is a planned study conducted on humans to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and treatment methods. It aims to explore the possibilities of new treatments and improve the health of patients.
Journal ArticleAn article published in an academic or professional journal that reports original research or scholarly analysis.
Randomized Controlled TrialA clinical trial that randomly assigns participants to treatment and control groups to evaluate the effects of an intervention.

Overview

Acarbose, an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, effectively lowers blood glucose and insulin levels, especially in the postprandial state, and improves HbA1c levels in patients with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Acarbose treatment also significantly reduced elevated cholesterol concentrations and postprandial triglyceride concentrations in NIDDM patients compared to placebo.

Original Abstract of the Article :
Acarbose (Bay g 5421, Glucobay; CAS 56180-94-0) inhibits alpha-glucosidases of the small intestine and thus delays glucose release from complex carbohydrates. It is therefore efficient as a first-line drug in the treatment of noninsulin-dependent diabetics (NIDDM) insufficiently treated with diet al...See full text at original site
