Prevalence of type 2 diabetes leads the list effecting operative and wellness of diabetics. A metabolic disease requiring lifelong treatment which includes medication, impacts productivity and quality of life. The study assessed, analysed, compared productivity among Type 2 Diabetics taking medication orally, injectably and through both modes. 400 diabetic respondents with males and females ratio of 50:50 were assessed. Purposive sample was taken from OPD Endocrinology, PGIMER, Chandigarh, India. Overall productivity was lowest among respondents taking medication injectably (32.95±12.42). Irrespective of mode of medication, females showed significant lower productivity than males. Lower the education levels, lower was the productivity and quality of life. Diabetic housewives and labourers exhibited minimal productivity. Oral medication and cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and HDL levels within desirable range did not deter productivity and accomplishment of tasks among respondents. Medication through injections deteriorated the productivity. Maintaining biochemical and lifestyle parameters within range, and keeping a positive attitude helped in attaining optimum quality of life.
