  • A single 1 hour Glucose tolerance test value of > 200 mg/dl, and:
  • Failure to achieve glycemic control with diet and exercise or deemed to require pharmacological therapy as per physician's criteria

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    A pragmatic, comparative effectiveness trial of glyburide versus metformin.
    Detailed Description
    Patients with gestational diabetes requiring pharmaceutical treatment will be randomized to receive glyburide or metformin. Dose increases will be determined by the patient's physician. Patients will be determined to have failed either medication if glucose control can not be achieved with the maximum dose of the medication, if insulin is stared to achieve glucose control or if another oral agent is started along for glucose control.
