Summary/Abstract: The increased prevalence of diabetes mellitus, mainly of the non-insulin dependent has brought about more sales of oral anti-diabetic drugs. Starting from the sales in the interval 2004-2007, we tried to make a medium term estimate of sales for the period 2008-2010. The software Statgraphics Plus and the index method have been used. Results show that the best sold medicines for the interval in question were Siofor (Berlin Chemie), Amaryl (Sanofi-Aventis), Diaprel (Servier) and Glibomet (Berlin Chemie), and the same products are supposed to increase in sales in the interval 2008-2010.
