| Insulin Glargine | Drug | In the group following the algorithm, fasting SMBG will be asked 3 times a week until FBG<100 mg/dl is achieved. Afterwards, 1 fasting SMBG will be asked weekly. Pre-prandial SMBG will be performed at the discretion of the physician. For the group following the algorithm, during the titration period, weekly telephone contacts will be required and a minimum of 4 visits to the clinic. |
