    • Concerns exist regarding a potential link between sulfonylurea use and increased cardiovascular mortality in maturity onset diabetes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To critically evaluate the role of sulfonylureas in treating maturity onset diabetes.
    • To discuss the indications, mechanism of action, and side effect profile of sulfonylureas.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review and synthesis of existing data on sulfonylurea therapy.
    • Analysis of factors influencing sulfonylurea efficacy and safety.

    Main Results:

    • Sulfonylureas offer significant benefits in glycemic control for many diabetic patients.
