Abstract

Background: The prevalence of type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing worldwide, particularly among older populations. Long-term management is crucial for clinical improvement, and drug-nutrient interactions may affect treatment efficacy.


Objective: This study aimed to investigate drug-nutrient interactions in T2DM management, focusing on the impact of medications and dietary components on treatment effectiveness.


Methods: An integrated literature review guided the development of a primary question and inclusion/exclusion criteria for selecting relevant studies from PubMed and Google Scholar databases. Six hundred ninety-nine papers were reviewed, summarizing oral medications for DM2 and their modes of action. Additionally, the role of dietary therapy and its susceptibility to drug-nutrient interactions, leading to vitamin deficiencies (e.g., B12) and increased risk of bone fractures, was explored.


Results: Drug-nutrient interactions influence blood sugar regulation and impact patients' nutritional status, including dyslipidemia and weight gain. Certain patient groups, such as women, the elderly, and those with poorly controlled diabetes, are more susceptible to these interactions.


Conclusion: Understanding and routinely assessing drug-nutrient interactions and nutritional status are essential for optimizing T2DM treatment outcomes and enhancing patients' quality of life.
