Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMT2) patients are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. Prior to the era of cardio-vascular trial outcome (CVOT) evidence on the efficacy of old oral diabetes (OAD) drugs such as metformin, sulfonylurea, thiazolidindion, glinid, and alpha glucosidase inhibitors in reducing the risk of cardiovascular events was very limited.
