Fasting blood glucose to normal, but postprandial hyperglycemia, is called "pre-diabetes" or "impaired glucose tolerance" in such a patient if the laissez-faire tends to progress into diabetes. Pre-diabetes, in the end whether or not to do medicine?

The current study shows that fasting blood glucose levels can be damage to the body's capillaries, causing the retina, kidneys, limbs, nerves and other parts of the lesions, and as long as the fasting blood glucose dropped to 7 mmol / l below, will be able to effective prevention.
Postprandial hyperglycemia will harm the body of the large blood vessels, especially cardiovascular. "However, the reduced number of postprandial blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin in the reduced number, in order to avoid the risk of large blood vessels, there are still some controversial." Professor Guo Xiaohui said.

GUO Xiao-hui noted that under the current study, pre-diabetes with lifestyle intervention-based interventions, namely, diet, increasing exercise, reducing body weight. Studies have shown that 1 kg of weight loss, diabetes, the risk of progressing from pre-diabetes can be reduced 16%. "Speaking of drugs, at present there is only one drug - Acarbose has been written into the" Diabetes Prevention Guide "," GUO Xiao-hui said, "If the merger with abnormal glucose tolerance cardiovascular risk factors, it is necessary to take acarbose. "By" cardiovascular risk factors ", including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease history, obesity, smoking, over 50 years and so on. "A lot of patients with impaired glucose tolerance more than one risk factor, it would have to a medication."
