The risk of developing any complications of diabetes is significantly reduced by monitoring and correcting blood glucose levels and blood pressure, as well as by observing healthy lifestyle rules. Early detection and treatment of type 2 diabetes contribute to the prevention of disease progression and the development of complications.
 The aim is to study the hypoglycemic effect of «Glyphasonorm» tablets and «Glyphasolin» capsules in a rat model of streptozotocin-induced diabetes.
 Materials and methods. The studies were carried out on Wistar rats injected intraperitoneally with nicotinamide at a dose of 230 mg/kg 15 minutes before intravenous injection of streptozotocin at a dose of 65 mg/kg. The dynamics of body weight of rats, glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin levels under the impact of long-term administration of metformin, «Glyphasonorm» tablets and «Glyphasolin» capsules were investigated.
 Results and discussion. The studies on a streptozotocin-induced diabetic model have established that under the action of «Glyphasonorm» tablets and «Glyphasolin» capsules, the level of glycosylated haemoglobin, which decreased along with the level of glucose in the blood of animals, was significantly reduced in comparison with diabetic control. After 14 days of research, the "Glyphasolin" capsules showed more pronounced hypoglycemic activity (4.4 % and 8.0 % more) than the "Glyphasonorm" tablets and the reference drug metformin. The «Glyphasolin» capsules on the 12th day of the study showed a marked decrease in glycosylated haemoglobin in the blood of animals (3.1 % and 5.6 % more) than the «Glyphasonorm» tablets and metformin.
 Conclusions. In the experimental model of streptozotocin diabetes in rats, "Gliphasolin" capsules showed a more pronounced hypoglycemic effect, which was manifested by a decrease in the content of glycosylated haemoglobin in the blood and prevailed over the effect of the comparative drug metformin and "Gliphasonorm" tablets.
 «Glyphasolin» capsules and «Glyphasonorm» tablets based on bioflavonoid complex from bean show promise in the treatment of type 2 diabetes on the background of obesity and reducing the risk of micro- and macroangiopathy
