Resumo
Systemic corticosteroids such as cortisone raise blood glucose and can offset the glucose-lowering effect of acarbose. Patients with diabetes may experience worsened glycemic control, particularly with prolonged or higher-dose corticosteroid courses.
O que esta interação significa em palavras simples
Acarbose and Cortisone can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.
Por que acontece
Corticosteroids increase hepatic gluconeogenesis and cause peripheral insulin resistance, opposing the antihyperglycemic action of acarbose.
O que fazer
Monitor blood glucose more frequently when starting, increasing or stopping cortisone, and adjust the antidiabetic regimen as needed. Reduce doses again when the corticosteroid is tapered to avoid hypoglycemia.
