  • Title: Effects of glimepiride and glibenclamide on carotid atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetic patients.
    Author: Katakami N, Kaneto H, Matsuhisa M, Shimomura I, Yamasaki Y.
    Journal: Diabetes Res Clin Pract; 2011 Apr; 92(1):e20-2. PubMed ID: 21257219.
    Abstract:
    We performed a 3-year observation study of type 2 diabetic patients treated with glibenclamide or glimepiride and found that the annual progression of the maximum carotid intima-media thickness was significantly attenuated in the subjects treated with glimepiride (n=20) as compared with those treated with glibenclamide (n=20) (-0.044±0.171 mm/year vs. 0.077±0.203 mm/year, p=0.0474).
