This paper presents the process of certification of diabetic disease and the application for invalidity in order to obtain welfare and economic benefits provided by law; it, also, describes the prescription process and the appropriateness of therapeutic prescription for the diabetic patient in terms of clinical-prescriptive appropriateness and economic-prescriptive appropriateness. Finally, it reports on the side effects of the most common antidi-abetics, the off-label use of metformin and the physician's responsibili-ties in the light of the Gelli-Bianco law.

At present, most studies report gender differences in their secondary analysis; however, this information receives scant attention from clinicians, and is often overwhelmed by press trumpeting the overall main positive results. Furthermore, and more importantly, any statistical evaluation of results obtained without specific and careful planning in the study for the topic of research is probably worthless. There are few studies in animals, but these are not typically useful because of the different biology, pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics compared to humans. Type 1 diabetes is a disease where gender difference can be easily evaluated. Irrespective of the cause of the loss of pancreatic beta-cell function, the common denominators of all forms of type 1 diabetes are the absence of circulating insulin and a reduction in peripheral insulin sensitivity leading to exogenous injecti...
