Contraindication

Mode of Action

Gliclazide stimulates insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells, reduces insulin uptake and glucose output by the liver, and increases insulin sensitivity at peripheral target sites. It decreases microthrombosis by partial inhibition of platelet aggregation and adhesion, and by restoring fibrinolysis w/ an increase in tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) activity.

Precaution

Monitor blood glucose concentration. May require insulin during metabolic stress. Care when transferring from combination therapy. Increased risk of severe hypoglycaemia in elderly, debilitated patients, patients with hepatic or renal impairment. Risk of hypogylcaemia when caloric intake is deficient, after strenuous exercise, when taken with ethanol or when >1 antidiabetic drug is used.

GI disturbances, skin reaction, leucopenia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis, haemolytic anaemia, cholestatic jaundice, vomiting, diarrhoea, gastritis, increased transaminases.

Interaction

May increase hypoglycaemic effect w/ phenylbutazone. Potentiation of blood glucose lowering effect w/ other antidiabetics (e.g. acarbose, insulins, metformin), beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, H2-receptor antagonists, MAOIs, sulfonamides, clarithromycin and NSAIDs. Chlorpromazine, glucocorticoids, ritodrine, salbutamol and terbutaline may cause increases in blood glucose levels. May diminish hypoglycaemic effect w/ danazol.
