and oral glucose-lowering medications—sulfonylurea (glyburide, glipizide, glimepiride), biguanide (metformin), α-glucosidase inhibitors (acarbose, miglitol), meglitinides (repaglinide, nateglinide), thiazolidinediones (pioglitazone, rosiglitazone), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, linagliptin, alogliptin), and sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors (canagliflozin, empagliflozin, dapagliflozin, ertugliflozin).4,5 Monotherapy or polypharmacy of glucose-lowering agents is based on the patient’s age, patient’s compliance, patient’s general condition, disease course, drug efficacy, and drug-related side effects.5 Therefore, the development of new T2DM drugs with better efficacy, fewer side effects, and potential repositioning for any new indications or concomitant benefits for health promotion is a problem that researchers have been actively addressing. Therefore, any research focusing on the antidiabetic medication and promoted health/or improved disease is welcome.8 In the July issue of the Journal of the Chinese Medical Association, we are happy to learn about the  \n*Address correspondence.
