MECHANISM OF ACTION
Glipizide appears to lower blood glucose acutely by stimulating the
release of insulin from the
pancreas, an effect dependent upon functioning beta cells in the
pancreatic islets. Extrapancreatic effects
also may play a part in the mechanism of action of oral sulfonylurea
hypoglycemic drugs. Two
extrapancreatic effects shown to be important in the action of
glipizide are an increase in insulin
sensitivity and a decrease in hepatic glucose production. However, the
mechanism by which glipizide
lowers blood glucose during long-term administration has not been
clearly established. Stimulation of
insulin secretion by glipizide in response to a meal is of major
importance. The insulinotropic response
to a meal is enhanced with glipizide administration in diabetic
patients. The postprandial insulin and C-
peptide responses continue to be enhanced after at least 6 months of
treatment. In 2 ra
