The present invention provides methods of treating non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance, Syndrome X, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, polycystic ovary syndrome, cataracts, hyperglycemia, or impaired glucose tolerance, the methods comprising the step of administering to a patient having or at risk of having non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance, Syndrome X, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, polycystic ovary syndrome, cataracts, hyperglycemia, or impaired glucose tolerance a synergistic amount of: 1) a sulfonylurea, a non-sulfonylurea K+ ATP channel blocker, or a sulfonylurea and a non-sulfonylurea K+ ATP channel blocker; and 2) a cAMP phosphodiesterase type 3 inhibitor. The present invention also provides kits and pharmaceutical compositions that comprise: 1) a sulfonylurea, a non-sulfonylurea K+ ATP channel blocker, or a sulfonylurea and a non-sulfonylurea K+ ATP channel blocker; and 2) a cAMP phosphodiesterase type 3 inhibitor. The present invention also relates to kits and pharmaceutical compositions that comprise 1) a sulfonylurea, a non-sulfonylurea K+ ATP channel blocker, or a sulfonylurea and a non-sulfonylurea K+ ATP channel blocker; 2) a cAMP phosphodiesterase type 3 inhibitor; and 3) an additional compound useful for the treatment of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance, Syndrome X, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic cardiomyopathy, polycystic ovary syndrome, cataracts, hyperglycemia, or impaired glucose tolerance.
