Summary

This study compared the effectiveness and safety of two treatment algorithms for insulin detemir initiation and titration: active titration algorithm (performed by investigator weekly) versus usual titration algorithm (performed by study subjects weekly) in patients with type 2 diabetes poorly controlled by OADs.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Active titration algorithm

Patients in active titration algorithm group will contact with investigator by telephone weekly to self-adjust the insulin dose till they achieve the target of FPG(\<110mg/dl).

BEHAVIORAL

Usual titration algorithm

All patients will be instructed to self-measure fasting capillary blood glucose. The dose of insulin detemir will be adjusted based on the average of three consecutive FPG values. the daily insulin dose should be increased by 2 IU/day if the FPG\>=110mg/dL, and by 4 IU/day if the FPG\>=180 mg/dL without any intervening hypoglycemic episodes; or it should be decreased by 2 or 4 IU/day if the FPG \< 70 mg/dL.
