A composition for treating patients having non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) by administering a controlled release oral solid dosage form containing preferably a biguanide drug such as metformin, on a once-a-day basis. The dosage form provides a mean time to maximum plasma concentration (Tmax) of the drug which occurs at 5.5 to 7.5 hours after oral administration on a once-a-day basis to human patients. Preferably, the dose of drug is administered at dinnertime to a patient in the fed state.

A class of benzopyrancarboxylic acid derivatives comprises compounds that are potent agonists of PPAR alpha and / or gamma, and are therefore useful in the treatment, control or prevention of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, atherosclerosis, obesity, vascular restenosis, inflammation, and other PPAR alpha and / or gamma mediated diseases, disorders and conditions.

A substance including the chemical structures of bicyclo[3.2.1]octan or the chemical structures of kaurene for the use in a dietary supplementation or as a constituent in a medicament for the treatment of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension and / or the metabolic syndrome. The unique chemical structures of bicyclo[3.2.1]octan alone or in a kaurene structure provides the substances, such as e.g. steviol, isosteviol and stevioside with the capability of enhancing or potentiating the secretion of insulin in a plasma glucose dependent manner. The substances including these unique chemical structures also have the capability of reducing the glucagon concentration in the blood and / or lowering the blood pressure thereby providing a self-regulatory treatment system for non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and / or hypertension. In a combination drug which also comprise a soy protein, and / or soy fiber and / or at least one isoflavone these substances act synergistically and such combination drugs are highly useful both prophylacticly or directly in the treatment of e.g. the metabolic syndrome and obesity and has due to the self-regulatory effect a widespread applicability as a dietary supplementation.
