Patients with steroid-induced diabetes tend to have post-prandial hyperglycemia, but not fasting hyperglycemia; they may benefit from short-acting insulin analogues or SUs and if steroid therapy is transient as with asthma treatment then DDP-4 inhibitors could be preferable, as the risk of hypoglycemia, as the glucose falls and treatment is withdrawn, is less than for insulin or SUs. Here, INS is linked to Hyperglycemia.
