Glycemic variability (GV) can increase the risk of pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus and its associated complications; however, the precise mechanism remains unclear. The effective control of GV is crucial for preventing the onset of pancreatic diabetes mellitus and improving prognosis. Both diet and antidiabetic medications have substantial effects on GV. However, many patients are prescribed suboptimal or even harmful drugs. Therefore, to provide a comprehensive treatment basis for clinicians to prevent and treat pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus, this study aimed to elucidate the relationship between GV and pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus; investigate the potential mechanisms (such as oxidative stress, inflammatory response, insulin resistance, and lipid metabolism disorders); provide lifestyle guidance; and recommend drug selections to reduce the GV in patients with pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus. Keywords: pancreatogenic diabetes, glucose fluctuation, glycemic variability, therapy, antihyperglycemic drug
