DESCRIPTION
Acarbose Tablets, USP are an oral alpha-glucosidase inhibitor for use
in the management
of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Acarbose is an oligosaccharide which is
obtained from
fermentation processes of a microorganism, _Actinoplanes utahensis_,
and is chemically
known as
_O_-4,6-dideoxy-4-[[(1S,4R,5S,6S)-4,5,6-trihydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)-2-
cyclohexen-1-yl]amino]-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-_O_-α-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→4)-D-
glucose. It is a white to off-white powder with a molecular weight of
645.60. Acarbose is
soluble in water and has a pK of 5.1. Its molecular formula is C
H
NO
and its
chemical structure is as follows:
Acarbose Tablets, USP are available for oral administration containing
25 mg, 50 mg or
100 mg acarbose, USP. Each tablet contains the following inactive
ingredients: colloidal
silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose and
corn starch.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Acarbose is a complex oligosaccharide that delays the digestion of
ingested
carbohydrates, thereby resulting in a smaller rise in blood glucose
concentration
following meals. As a consequence of plasma glucose reduction,
acarbose reduces

levels of glycosylated hemoglobin in patients with type 2 diabetes
mellitus. Systemic non-
enzymatic protein glycosylation, as reflected by levels of
glycosylated hemoglobin, is a
function of average blood glucose concentration over time.
MECHANISM OF ACTION
In contrast to sulfonylureas, acarbose does not enhance insulin
secretion. The
antihyperglycemic action of acarbose results from a competitive,
reversible inhibition of
pancreatic alpha-amylase and membrane-bound intestinal alpha-glucoside
hydrolase
enzymes. Pancreatic alpha-amylase hydrolyzes complex starches to
oligosaccharides in
the lumen of the small intestine, while the membrane-bound intestinal
alpha-glucosidases
hydrolyze oligosaccharides, trisaccharides, and disaccharides to
glucose and other
monosaccharides i
