ADA 2007 Treatment Recommendations [3]

Glycemic control:
A1C < 7.0%*
Preprandial glucose or FPG 90–130 mg/dL
Peak postprandial capillary plasma glucose < 180 mg/dL
Keypoints:
• Goals should be individualized
• Special populations may require treatment modifications
• If A1C goals are not met despite reaching preprandial glucose goals, target treatment to PPG goals if home glucose monitoring data demonstrate abnormally high blood glucose levels

*Referenced to a nondiabetic range of 4.0%–6.0% using a Diabetes Control and Complications

Trial-based assay.

More stringent glycemic goals (ie, a normal A1C < 6.0%) may further reduce complications at the cost of increased hypoglycemia risk.
