Report, Opportunities, Segmentation and Forecast To 2014 – 2021
Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a disease marked by lack of insulin, insulin resistance, and
high blood sugar. This disease has long-term damage that results in failure and dysfunction of
multiple organs including blood vessels, heart, nerves, kidneys, and eyes. About 85% of
diabetics have the chances of getting T2DM. The rising cases of diabetes can be attributed to
reduced physical activity and consumption of high-calorie diets. A healthy diet and lifestyle
change can improve the chances of recovering from T2DM.
The T2DM therapeutics market in Asia Pacific has evolved in the last decade. It has brought
about promising treatments such as SGLT-2 inhibitor, GLP-1 receptor agonist, DPP-4 inhibitor,
sulfonylureas, biguanide, and other insulin therapies. But alternative products offering better
glycemic control hamper market growth. GIP (Gastric inhibitory polypeptide) is impaired during
type 2 diabetes, but GLP-1 is preserved proving beneficial to therapy.
Sulfonylureas help your body secrete more insulin. Examples of medication in this class of
medicines are glipizide and glyburide. Meglitinides work similarly to sulfonylureas but are
faster-acting agents. Examples of medication include nateglinide and repaglinide. DPP-4
inhibitors reduce blood sugar levels and negate the possibility of weight gain. Examples include
saxagliptin and sitagliptin.

GLP-1 receptor agonists lower blood sugar level and slow digestion. Examples of this
medication are liraglutide and exenatide. SGLT-2 inhibitors are newest drugs in the market
which prevents sugar to be absorbed into the blood and excretes...
