Efficacy of Diacerein Supplementation on Interleukin-1β, Hs-CRP, TNF-α Levels and Glycemic Control in Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if diacerein supplementation can help improve inflammation and glycemic control in adults with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. It will also study the safety and tolerability of diacerein. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does diacerein lower levels of inflammatory markers like interleukin-1β, hs-CRP, and TNF-α? * Does diacerein improve blood sugar control? * What side effects or problems do participants have when taking diacerein? Researchers will compare diacerein to a placebo (a look-alike substance with no active drug) to see if it works better for managing type 2 diabetes. Participants will: * Be adults aged 40-60 with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes * Take either diacerein or a placebo every day for 12 weeks * Visit the clinic for blood tests and monitoring at the beginning and end of the trial * Be evaluated for side effects and medication adherence\]
