Detailed explanation-1: -Oral hypoglycemic drugs are used to lower the quantity of glucose present in the bloodstream. These medications are not insulin; however, they promote the pancreas to form insulin. These drugs are generally helpful for treating Type 2 or non-insulin-dependent diabetes (adult-onset diabetes mellitus).
Detailed explanation-2: -Oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) are a group of drugs used to help reduce the amount of sugar present in the blood. They are not insulin, but they stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin. OHAs are usually used in the treatment of adult onset diabetes (also known as Type 2 or non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus).
Detailed explanation-3: -The other most popular oral agent is metformin, which primarily decreases hepatic glucose production and increases peripheral glucose utilization; therefore, it does not stimulate insulin secretion and should not cause hypoglycemia by itself.
