Résumé

Type 2 diabetes is a common chronic disease that continues to increase in prevalence globally and is a major healthcare burden. Diabetes and hypertension frequently occur concurrently, and the use of antihypertensive agents is common in diabetic patients. One antihypertensive agent, verapamil, has tentatively shown potentially positive effects on glycemic control in assorted pre-clinical models. To evaluate the effect of verapamil on glycemic control in hypertensive type 2 diabetic patients. Type 2 diabetic hypertensive patients were recruited from King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh, KSA, to receive oral verapamil therapy. Blood pressure and glycometabolic parameters, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), C-peptide, and homeostatic model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), were monitored at baseline and after 6 months of verapamil therapy. Thirty-five patients (16 male, 19 female) with a mean age of 57.2 years were recruited. The use of verapamil was associated with non-significant decreases in HbA1c, FPG, C-peptide, and HOMA-IR. However, a sub-group of 17 participants showed a decrease in HbA1c that was ≥0.5%. Univariate logistic regression showed that baseline BMI, HOMA-IR, and C-peptide were significantly (P < 0.05) associated with HbA1c reductions of ≥0.5%. Verapamil is metabolically neutral and allows the stabilization of glycometabolic parameters in type 2 diabetic individuals. Additional research exploring the mechanism behind the variable response to verapamil therapy is warranted.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Type 2 diabetes is a common chronic disease that continues to increase in prevalence globally and is a major healthcare burden. Diabetes and hypertension frequently occur concurrently, and the use of antihypertensive agents is common in diabetic patients. One antihypertensive agent, verapamil, has tentatively shown potentially positive effects on glycemic control in assorted pre-clinical models.
AIM OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of verapamil on glycemic control in hypertensive type 2 diabetic patients.
METHODS METHODS
Type 2 diabetic hypertensive patients were recruited from King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh, KSA, to receive oral verapamil therapy. Blood pressure and glycometabolic parameters, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), C-peptide, and homeostatic model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), were monitored at baseline and after 6 months of verapamil therapy.
RESULTS RESULTS
Thirty-five patients (16 male, 19 female) with a mean age of 57.2 years were recruited. The use of verapamil was associated with non-significant decreases in HbA1c, FPG, C-peptide, and HOMA-IR. However, a sub-group of 17 participants showed a decrease in HbA1c that was ≥0.5%. Univariate logistic regression showed that baseline BMI, HOMA-IR, and C-peptide were significantly (P < 0.05) associated with HbA1c reductions of ≥0.5%.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Verapamil is metabolically neutral and allows the stabilization of glycometabolic parameters in type 2 diabetic individuals. Additional research exploring the mechanism behind the variable response to verapamil therapy is warranted.
