Summary
ACE inhibitors may slightly enhance glucose lowering of antidiabetic drugs. Exenatide has a low intrinsic hypoglycemia risk, but the risk rises when it is combined with insulin or sulfonylureas.
What this interaction means in plain words
Exenatide injectable and Moexipril have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.
Why it happens
Possible improved insulin sensitivity from ACE inhibition adds to incretin-mediated glucose lowering; mechanism not firmly established.
What to do
Monitor glucose, especially in the first weeks of ACE inhibitor therapy, and lower sulfonylurea or insulin doses if hypoglycemia occurs.
