CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY:
ACTIONS :
Glyburide appears to lower the blood glucose acutely by stimulating
the release of insulin from the
pancreas, an effect dependent upon functioning beta cells in the
pancreatic islets. The mechanism by
which glyburide lowers blood glucose during long-term administration
has not been clearly
established. With chronic administration in Type II diabetic patients,
the blood glucose lowering effect
persists despite a gradual decline in the insulin secretory response
to the drug. Extrapancreatic effects
may be involved in the mechanism of action of oral sulfonylurea
hypoglycemic drugs. The combination
of glyburide and metformin may have a synergistic effect, since both
agents act to improve glucose
tolerance by different but complementary mechanisms.
Some patients who are initially responsive to oral hypoglycemic drugs,
including glyburide, may
become unresponsive or poorly responsive over time. Alternatively,
glyburide tablets may be effective
in some patients who have become unresponsive to one or more other
sulfonylurea drugs.
