Anti-Inflammatory Drug Improves Glycemia, Lowers Inflammation in Obese, Young Adults
Date:1/27/2008

nd that people who took 4 grams per day of salsalate reduced fasting glucose levels by 13 percent and C-reactive protein concentrations (a marker of inflammation) by 34 percent. Previous studies have implicated inflammation in the development of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.

The encouraging results from this small population study have prompted the National Institutes of Health to fund a larger, follow-up study that will look at safety and efficacy of targeting inflammation using salsalate in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The study is currently ongoing at multiple sites across the country.
