Diabetologia Praktyczna 2009;10(1):1-6.
Abstract
The importance of postprandial glycaemia especially
in generation of long-term complications of diabetes
was presented. Among therapeutic possibilities
the role of insulin analogs, glinids, acarbose and
drugs of so called incretin axis was described. The
self-monitoring of glycaemia is very important in
monitoring of postprandial glycaemia with special
role of glucometers indicating the link between
hiperglycaemia and composition of meals.
