Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of saxagliptin combined with benzbromarone in diabetic patients with hyperuricemia.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 82 diabetic patients with hyperuricemia admitted to our hospital between February 2018 and October 2022. Patients were randomly divided into a control group (n = 41, saxagliptin alone) and an observation group (n = 41, saxagliptin + benzbromarone). Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. Changes in blood glucose [fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial blood g1ucose (2 hPG), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) ], fasting insulin (FINS), uric acid (UA), serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and blood lipids [total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) ] were compared, along with clinical efficacy and adverse reactions.Results The magnitude of change (pre- vs. post-treatment) in FBG, 2hPG, HbA1c, FINS, UA, Scr, and BUN was significantly greater in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The magnitude of change in TC, TG, and LDL-C was also significantly greater in the observation group (P < 0.05). The total clinical efficacy rate was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Saxagliptin combined with benzbromarone effectively reduces blood glucose, insulin, UA, Scr, BUN, and lipid levels in diabetic patients with hyperuricemia, improving clinical efficacy with a favorable safety profile.
