Name : C
Description
Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks

Mode of Action

Glibenclamide lowers blood glucose concentration principally by stimulating secretion of endogenous insulin from the pancreatic beta-cells. Hypoglycaemic action associated w/ short-term therapy appears to include reduction of basal hepatic glucose production and enhancement of peripheral insulin action at target sites.

Interaction

Serum levels may be reduced by colesevelam. May increase hypoglycaemic effect w/ MAOIs, chloramphenicol, fluoroquinolones (e.g. ciprofloxacin), probenecid, NSAIDs, ACE inhibitors, fluoxetine, disopyramide, clarithromycin, salicylates, sulfonamides, beta-blockers. Increased serum levels w/ antifungal antibiotics (e.g. miconazole, fluconazole). May decrease hypoglycaemic effect w/ nonthiazide (e.g. furosemide) and thiazide diuretics, corticosteroids, phenothiazines, thyroid agents, oestrogens, OC, phenytoin, nicotinic acid, sympathomimetic agents, rifampicin, Ca channel blockers, isoniazid. Potentially Fatal: May increase hepatotoxic effect of bosentan.
