چکیده
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a fast-growing disease and a leading global public health concern. Multiple complications are associated with T2DM. Patient education with lifestyle modifications and pharmacotherapy are main methods for treatment of patients afflicted with T2DM. Lifestyle interventions are effective strategies but usually persist for a short term whereas T2DM patients with long-term treatment still present challenges in many cases. In this review, we have briefly summarized recent progress for T2DM diagnosis and treatment. We attempt to provide an outline for T2DM diagnosis and treatment. In addition, we introduce Chinese herbal medicine as an alternate treatment for physicians and T2DM patients.
