CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION:
The primary mode of action of glipizide in experimental animals
appears to be the
stimulation of insulin secretion from the beta cells of pancreatic
islet tissue and is thus
dependent on functioning beta cells in the pancreatic islets. In
humans, glipizide 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 glipizide lowers blood glucose during long-term
administration has
not been clearly established. In man, stimulation of insulin secretion
by glipizide in
response to a meal is undoubtedly of major importance. Fasting insulin
levels are not
elevated even on long-term glipizide administration, but the
postprandial insulin response
continues to be enhanced after at least 6 months of treatment. The
insulinotropic
response to a meal occurs within 30 minutes after an oral dose of
glipizide in diabetic
patients, but elevated insulin levels do not persist beyond the time
of the meal challenge.
