Summary

A better glycemic control is associated with less complications (cardiac diseases, blindness, etcetera) for type 2 diabetic patients. The objective is to study if rosiglitazone may lead to a more regular glycemic pattern with less hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia episodes than with a sulphonylurea (glimepiride).
