Almost 30 million Americans have diabetes, but only about one third of them have good control of the disease.

Diet and exercise are the first step, but many people need medication.

Many diabetic patients have new-onset symptoms, such as frequent urination and excessive thirst, which are both hallmarks of the disease.

Diet and exercise are extremely important, but the majority of these patients also need additional medications.

Finding the right drugs to control blood sugar can be big challenge.

Most patients with diabetes will need medication to control their blood sugar. The first line of treatment is typically a medication called Metformin. Eventually, most patients will need a second drug.

There are several second-choice drugs, each with their own advantages and disadvantages.

"We don't have adequate head to head trials to prove that one is the clearly best way for the general population," said Dr. John Buse, director of the University of North Carolina diabetes unit.

Buse is leading a global research effort to find the best second drug choice to help control blood sugar levels and help normalize body .

He was part of a study published recently in the Journal of the American Medical Association that looked at adding insulin or another medication, which is also an injectable, called IDegLira.

"So, what we found was after six months of follow-up, that the patients on the IDegLira got to much better levels of overall blood sugar control, and they achieved those better levels with less hypoglycemia and loss instead of gain," Buse said.
