Diabetes is a heterogeneous condition with various presentations and progression to its complications. Recent advances in the understanding of genetics have revealed limitations of the current classification of diabetes. Understanding the distinct differences in the types and presentations of more sophisticated classifications of diabetes will guide the selection of proper medications for both glycemic control and the prevention of complications.
