Description | Background: Recent pharmacological studies reveal imeglimin (Twymeeg) including dual mechanisms for stimulating insulin secretion and reducing insulin resistance.
Case Presentation: The case is a 62-year-old male with type 2 diabetes (T2D). He showed HbA1c 6.4% and started imeglimin. After 5 weeks, a 75g oral glucose tolerance test (75gOGTT) was conducted, and the biomarkers were compared with that of 6 months ago. Insulinogenic index (IGI) 0-30min was stable, but insulin secretion was increased during 30-60min and 60-120min. Discussion: Previous studies of imeglimin revealed improved insulin secretion for GTT. Clinical progress will be followed up with detailed investigation of glucose and insulin variability. |
