Dose-Dependent Effects of Glyburide on Insulin Secretion and Glucose Uptake in Humans

Abstract: The data suggest that glyburide (and probably other sulfonylureas), operates within a narrow range of plasma concentrations (50-200 nM), which can be achieved with very low doses of the drug. It remains to be shown whether the threshold of maximal effect also in clinical practice is achieved with lower sulfonylurea doses than that currently used.

“…Main inclusion criteria for all three initial placebo-controlled trials were age between 16 and 75 years and DM2 treated for at least 3 months prior to screening with the maximally effective dose of an SU [27][28][29], or !1500 mg/day of MET, or a combination of these doses of SU and MET. Additional criteria were an A1C between 7.1 and 11.0%, fasting plasma glucose (FPG) concentration <13.3 mmol/L and body mass index (BMI) of 27-45 kg/m 2 .…”

“…This drug decreases the insulin resistance and improves insulin secretion, the pathogenic factors in the causation of hyperglycemia in GDM (Groop et al, 1991;Rossetti et al, 1990). Another advantage is that, the human placental transfer of glibenclamide is negligible.…”

“…In an effort to standardize sulfonylurea use at study initiation, if required, subjects had their sulfonylurea dose adjusted before the placebo lead-in period to the maximally effective dose (4 mg/day glimepiride, 20 mg/day glipizide, 10 mg/ day glipizide XL, 10 mg/day glyburide, 6 mg/day micronized glyburide, 350 mg/ day chlorpropamide, or 500 mg/day tolazamide) (15)(16)(17). To address the risk of hypoglycemia, the protocol recommended progressive 50% reductions in sulfonylurea dose, eventual discontinuation (depending on the recurrence of hypoglycemia) in the event of a documented episode of hypoglycemia (glucose Ͻ60 mg/dl), or two undocumented but suspected episodes of hypoglycemia.…”
