As they were commonly prescribed together for blood glucose control, metformin and more recent sulfonylureas, such as glimepiride, have been shown in numerous clinical studies to effectively reverse insulin resistance and promote insulin secretion. In India, primary care physicians and specialists used the fixed-dose combination of metformin and glimepiride in various doses. The results of clinical trials needed to be applied to regular clinical practice in the real world in order to close the knowledge gap. Regarding this, professional opinions will provide insightful information about the use of antihyperglycemics and their combinations, including their safety, effectiveness, and usefulness for a particular subgroup of patients with diabetes. So, a cross-sectional study was conducted on the prescription pattern of oral anti-diabetic drugs for patients with diabetes mellitus. The choice of oral anti-diabetic agents for diabetic patients with comorbidities was analysed by using 26 questions. About 845 physicians participated in the survey by sharing their opinions/views on the questionnaire. Also, 400 physicians out of 845 prefers glimepiride and metformin as the preferred combination to achieve the targeted glycated haemoglobin level. Moreover, 723 physicians out of 845 experienced glycated haemoglobin reduction with glimepiride and metformin for more than 3 years. Maximum glycated haemoglobin reduction with glimepiride and metformin was 1.5%-2% by 383 physicians as per the survey. They also experienced good glycaemic control and good cardiovascular safety with glimepiride and metformin. Thus, the experts recommended glimepiride and metformin very often in elderly individuals. Glycated haemoglobin reduction was more than 3 years with glimepiride and metformin, as per the clinical experience of the experts participated in the survey. They also witnessed good glycaemic control and cardiovascular safety profile with glimepiride and metformin combination.
