Diabetes remission is promoted as an ideal endpoint of therapy.
The definition of diabetes remission is open to discussion and debate.
Type 2 diabetes remission is defined as a healthy clinical state characterized by achievement of HBA1c below the targeted level, maintained for at least 6 months, with or without continued use of lifestyle modification and/or metformin, provided that this is not due to complications, comorbid conditions or concomitant therapy.
