Diabetes care is a growing part of clinics offering wider medical services, and well-controlled blood glucose also matters for aesthetic patients, as poorly controlled diabetes can slow wound healing after procedures.
Type 2 diabetes medication works in different ways to lower blood glucose. NICE guidance (NG28) starts most adults on metformin, using a modified-release form such as Glucophage SR if standard tablets cause stomach side effects. If blood glucose stays above target, a second medicine can be added, such as a sulfonylurea like gliclazide or glimepiride. GLP-1 receptor agonists such as Trulicity are considered later in the pathway for some patients. The right medication for diabetes depends on HbA1c, kidney function, cardiovascular risk and how well each medicine is tolerated.
Most patients start on diabetes tablets taken once or twice a day. Metformin is available in 500mg and 1000mg strengths, as standard or prolonged-release tablets. Gliclazide 40mg and glimepiride 2mg are taken with food and are often added to metformin. For patients who need an injectable, Trulicity is a once-weekly pre-filled pen in 1.5mg and 4.5mg strengths, licensed for adults with type 2 diabetes. Across the diabetes type 2 medication range, the aim is the same: to bring HbA1c to target and lower the long-term risk of diabetes complications.
Gliclazide and glimepiride can cause low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), especially if a meal is missed. Patients taking them should know the warning signs and carry glucose tablets for diabetes-related hypos. Metformin rarely causes hypoglycaemia on its own, but kidney function should be checked before starting and reviewed regularly. Trulicity is not for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, and its most common side effects are nausea, diarrhoea and vomiting.
The type 2 diabetes medication UK clinics order most on Faces covers both ends of the treatment pathway. Metformin and Glucophage SR are the most common first-line diabetes tablets. Trulicity 4.5mg is the best-selling injectable in this category. Stocking first-line tablets alongside a once-weekly pen means a clinic can support patients at different stages of their medication for type 2 diabetes UK treatment.
