ZIDE belongs to the class of drug called oral hypoglycemic.

It is used for the control of blood glucose in people with type 2 diabetes.

It increases the amount of insulin released by the pancreas and helps the body use insulin more efficiently.

Category:

Zide 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.

Precautions:

  • 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.

Indications:

  • Type 2 DM

Contraindications:

  • Type 1 DM, diabetes complicated with ketoacidosis; hypersensitivity; severe renal and hepatic impairment. Pregnancy and lactation.
