About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Diabetes Mellitus

Eligibility Criteria

30 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult males and non-pregnant females aged ≥30 years having a diagnosis of pre-diabetes (impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance) and a diabetes and a meeting one of the following criteria

    1. Fasting Plasma Glucose ≥100 mg/dL, fasting is defined as no caloric intake for at least 8 h, OR
    2. 2-h Post load Glucose ≥140 mg/dL during an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). The test should be performed as described by the World Health Organisation(WHO), using a glucose load containing the equivalent of 75 g anhydrous glucose dissolved in water. OR
    3. Glycosylated haemoglobin (A1C) ≥5.7%. The test should be performed in a laboratory using a method that is National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories certified and standardized. OR
    4. In a patient with classic symptoms of hyperglycaemia or hyperglycaemic crisis, a random plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dL in the last 12 months.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any one of the following

    1. History of diabetes onset >12 months from date of randomization and/or on any oral hypoglycemic agents (other than metformin)
    2. Any history suggestive of micro vascular or macro vascular disease
    3. Women in childbearing age unable to practice any form of contraception
    4. Impaired renal function; estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) <60mls/min/1.73m2.
    5. Known history of any chronic illness taking regular pharmacological agents.
    6. Blood pressure fluctuations exceeding 10 mmHg on 2 subsequent clinic visits or known history of hypotension or bradycardia in last 6 months or taking 2 or more antihypertensive medications regularly in the last 6 weeks
    7. Current or former employees of organic India
    8. Participating in another clinical trial with an active intervention or drug or device with last dose taken within 60 days.
