Abstract

The pharmacological additional information for many medications includes warnings stating that the blood sugar control may be worsened by the intake of certain drugs. However a quantification of the effects is missing. This may result in confusion for patients as well as for their physicians. The aim of this study was to assess a potential association between medication (beta blockers, thiazides, levothyroxine) and HbA1c in people without diabetes.
