This study compared the effects on glycaemic variability and glucose control between saxagliptin and acarbose as add-on therapies for aged T2DM inadequately controlled with metformin alone. The results showed that compared with acarbose-metformin, saxagliptin-metformin was more effective in glucose control with similar glycaemic variability.
