A clinical trial with glipizide - a relative new sulphonylurea
Abstract
Glipizide is a relatively new sulphonylurea- antidiabetic agent. 24 maturity-onset diabetics were studied to determine the dosage required to produce adequate control and the safety and tolerance of the drug. It was concluded that glipizide is a safe and potent anti-diabetic agent and a suitable alternative in those patients poorly-controlled on standard oral hypoglycaemic drugs.
