Aim: To build a easy and reliable rat model of insulin resistance.

Methods: Changes concerning sugar metabolism were observed in experimental rats injected intraperitoneally by different doses of dexamethasone.

Results: The changes by dexamethasone in fasting blood insulin and insulin resistance prior to that of fasting blood glucose were dose and time dependent.

Conclusion: It was convenience to set up a insulin resistance model induced by dexamethasone in rats which would favor other related research.
