Hyperglycemia attenuates the gastrokinetic effect of erythromycin and affects the perception of postprandial hunger in normal subjects.

Abstract: At a blood glucose concentration of approximately 15 mmol/l, 1) gastric emptying of a solid meal is slower, when compared with euglycemia, even after administration of erythromycin; 2) the effect of erythromycin on gastric emptying of a solid meal is attenuated; and 3) the perception of postprandial hunger is reduced.

“…This has been clearly established to be the case for erythromycin; i.e. the acceleration of gastric emptying [13][14][15][16] and stimulation of antral contractile activity 18 induced by erythromycin, are attenuated markedly during hyperglycaemia. Moreover, the effects of erythromycin are also influenced by changes in the blood glucose concentration that are within the normal postprandial range.…”

“…4 Until recently, cisapride was arguably the drug of first choice, 6,10 but the recent recognition of adverse cardiac effects have led to substantial restrictions in its use. 11 It has also been demonstrated that the gastrokinetic effect of at least some of these drugs (including erythromycin and cisapride) is attenuated during hyperglycaemia; [12][13][14][15][16][17][18] the latter is known to slow gastric emptying in patients with diabetes, as well as healthy subjects. 1,19 Of the currently available gastrokinetic drugs, erythromycin is the most potent when given intravenously during euglycaemia 5 and may be particularly useful in the initial management of diabetic gastroparesis.…”

“…Moreover, marked hyperglycaemia can also produce tachygastria and un-coordinated motor activity of different parts of the stomach [8,9]. Studies have also shown that acute hyperglycaemia slows gastric emptying of both solid and liquid nutrients in patients with established autonomic neuropathy and can also attenuate the prokinetic effect of intravenous erythromycin on gastric emptying [5,10]. It could be hypothesised that reduction in day-to-day glycaemic variability could help to optimise gastric motility in patients with diabetic gastroparesis.…”

“…Furthermore, the reduction in postprandial glycemia induced by these agents is closely related to the magnitude of the slowing of gastric emptying (9)(10)(11). Accordingly, when the effect of GLP-1 to slow gastric emptying is attenuated, such as with the concurrent administration of erythromycin (12), the glucose-lowering effect is similarly diminished.…”
