GLIMEPIRIDE-2MGHypertensive heart and renal disease
Severe
How does the disease interact with Gitformin 2 mg Tablet:
When compared to diet alone or diet plus insulin, the use of oral hypoglycemic medications may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. This alert is based on the University Group Diabetes Programme (UGDP) project, a long-term prospective clinical investigation aimed to assess the efficacy of glucose-lowering medications in preventing or delaying vascular problems in non-insulin-dependent diabetes patients. Patients treated for 5 to 8 years with diet with a fixed dose of either tolbutamide (a sulfonylurea) or phenformin (a biguanide) had a cardiovascular death risk nearly 2.5 times that of patients treated with diet alone, resulting in the cessation of both therapies in the research. Regardless of how these findings are interpreted, doctors and patients should be aware of the possibility.
How to manage the interaction:
The use of oral hypoglycemic agents may be associated with an increased risk of heart problems. Let the doctor know if you have heart problems.

GLIMEPIRIDE-2MGUnspecified kidney failure
Severe
How does the disease interact with Gitformin 2 mg Tablet:
Sulfonylureas are metabolised in the liver and eliminated in the urine and faeces as metabolites (some of which have pharmacologic activity). Patients with poor liver and/or renal function who are treated with sulfonylureas may be exposed to increased serum drug concentrations, increasing the risk of severe hypoglycemia episodes. In the context of hepatic impairment, gluconeogenic ability may be reduced, adding to the risk. Sulfonylurea therapy should be used with caution in people who have liver or kidney illness. It is possible that lower dosages and longer intervals between dosage adjustments will be required. If hypoglycemia occurs during treatment, it may be prolonged in these patients due to slower medication metabolism and/or excretion.
How to manage the interaction:
In patients with kidney problems, severe hypoglycemic episodes may occur. Therapy should be administered cautiously in patients with renal disease.

How does the disease interact with Gitformin 2 mg Tablet:
Hypoglycemia is a common side effect of insulin and/or oral hypoglycemic medications. Patients who are debilitated or malnourished, those with defective counterregulatory mechanisms (e.g., autonomic neuropathy and adrenal or pituitary insufficiency), and those receiving beta-adrenergic blocking agents should exercise caution when using these drugs.
How to manage the interaction:
Care should be taken in patients who may be particularly susceptible to the development of hypoglycemic episodes during treatment.

How does the disease interact with Gitformin 2 mg Tablet:
In patients with glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) impairment, sulfonylureas can cause hemolytic anaemia.

How does the disease interact with Gitformin 2 mg Tablet:
Treatment with sulfonylureas may cause hyponatremia in individuals who are taking other drugs or have medical disorders that cause hyponatremia, or it may stimulate the secretion of antidiuretic hormone. Certain sulfonylureas have been linked to the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion, and these medications may enhance the peripheral (antidiuretic) action of ADH and/or increase ADH release. Caution should be exercised when treating individuals who have hyponatremia or are at increased risk of developing hyponatremia, such as the elderly, those using diuretics, or those who are volume-depleted.
