Abstract
The management of hyperglycemia, the hallmark metabolic abnormality associated with type 2 diabetes, has taken center stage in the treatment of diabetes. The development of new classes of blood glucose-lowering medications to supplement the older therapies has increased the number of treatment options available for type 2 diabetes. The increased number of choices available to practitioners and patients has heightened uncertainty regarding the most appropriate means of treating this widespread disease. The ADA/EASD consensus algorithm for the medical management of type 2 diabetes was published in January 2009. I introduced the consensus approach to the management of hyperglycemia to help guide health care providers in choosing the most appropriate interventions for their patients with type 2 diabetes.
