title: Efficacy of 6 months monotherapy with glucosidase inhibitor Acarbose versus sulphonylurea glibenclamide on metabolic control of dietary treated type II diabetics (NIDDM).
abstract: Six months monotherapy with Acarbose vs. glibenclamide led to a marked improvement of BG and HbA1 in NIDDM, insufficiently controlled with diet. Beneficial effects of these distinct principles of action were statistically not different.
