 This phase aimed to determine the pattern of medicine among diabetic victims relevant to current evidence and clinical directions. Glycemic control remains the important therapeutic objective for prevention of aim organ damage and additional complications arising from diabetes. Poor glycemic control in diabetes mellitus maybe prevented by utilizing rational use of oral hypoglycemic powers. Chronic hyperglycemia of diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with general damage, dysfunction and failure of various tools, especially analysis, kidneys, nerves, heart and ancestry vessels. We proposed to evaluate the prescribing pattern of antidiabetic drugs among Type 2 diabetes subjects. This study was conducted for accumulating the demographic details of diabetic cases and determining the pattern of cures prescribed among bureaucracy in an outpatient area of a tertiary healthcare center.It is a descriptive type of cross-localized study conducted for a ending of 3 months from 1 May to 31 July, 2015 among the diabetic patients, inattentive of age, sexuality and race, attending the outpatient area of diabetic clinic of Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Metformin unique predominated in 41% prescriptions followed by the alliance of Metformin and Sitagliptin (31.4%). Before creating and clearing any new medication, the results maybe used as a citation to determine the best antagonistic-diabetic medication expression and combination for this region of the experience.  To reduce depression and mortality in diabetic patients, we must guarantee optimum glycemic control not only by prescribing restrain line with guidelines, but likewise by ensuring victims’ adherence to treatment plan.
