Aim 48-53 (6.5-7%) Younger patient Newer diagnosis Low risk of hypoglycaemia No co-morbidities Micro-vascular complications Aim 58 (7.5% or higher) Older patient Long standing diabetes Multiple hypoglycaemic agents Cardiovascular risk Macro-vascular complication Individualised Target • When setting a target HBA1C): • Involve the person in decisions about their individual HbA1C target level, see above • Encourage the person to maintain their individual target unless the resulting side effects • (including hypoglycemia) or their efforts to achieve this impair their quality of life • Offer therapy (lifestyle and medication) to help achieve and maintain the HbA1C target level • Inform a person with a higher HbA1C that any reduction in HbA1C towards the agreed target is advantageous to future health • Avoid pursuing highly intensive management to levels of less than 48mmol/l or 6.5 %. • However in early disease tight control (HbA1C 48mmol/l or 6.5%) holds better long-term outcome Home Take me back to the quick guide

NICE Criteria DPP-4 inhibitors(Sitagliptin, Vildagliptin, Saxagliptin, Linagliptin) • Continue DPP-4 inhibitor therapy only if there is a reduction of ≥0.5 percentage points in HbA1c in 6 months. • Discuss the benefits and risks of a DPP-4 inhibitor with the person, bearing in mind that a DPP-4 inhibitor might be preferable to a Thiazolidinedione if: – further weight gain would cause significant problems, or – a Thiazolidinedione is contraindicated, or the person had a poor response to or did not tolerate a Thiazolidinedione in the past. GLP1 agonists (Exenatide/ Liraglutide) These should only be initiated by the team with special interest in practice • Discuss the benefits of GLP1 agonist to allow the person to make an informed decision. Consider starting in: • BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 in people of European descent and there are problems associated with high weight, or • BMI < 35 kg/m2 and insulin is unacceptable because of occupational implications or weight loss would benefit other co-morbidities. 6 month review • Continue GLP1 Therapy only if the person has a reduction in HbA1C of≥1.0 percentage point and ≥3% of initial body weight in 6 months. Thiazolidinedione (Pioglitazone) • Continue Thiazolidinedione therapy only if there is a reduction of ≥ 0.5 percentage points in HbA1c in 6 months. • Discuss the benefits and risks of a Thiazolidinedione with the person, bearing in mind that a Thiazolidinedione might be preferable to a DPP-4 inhibitor if: – the person has marked insulin insensitivity, or – a DPP-4 inhibitor is contraindicated, or – the person had a poor response to or did not tolerate a DPP-4 inhibitor in the past. • Do not start or continue a Thiazolidinedione if any suspicion or risk of bladder cancer/ frank haematuria if the person has heart failure or is at higher risk of Fracture. • When selecting a Thiazolidinedione, take into account the most up-to-date advice from regulatory authorities, cost, safety and prescribing issue Click here to access the full NICE guidance Home Take me back to the quick guide Adapted from NICE Clinical Guideline 87, Type 2 Diabetes (May2009)
