Abstract:
AIM:To study the effects of domestic glimepiride(Gli) on blood sugar,glucose tolerance and release of insulin in rabbits and rats METHODS:Taken the changes of blood sugar level and glucose tolerance before and after giving drug as parameters,the hypoglycemic effect of Gli was observed in rabbits and rats RESULTS:Gli dose-dependly decreased the levels of blood glucose in rats with a decrease of 23% in high-dose group and seemed to be similar to glibenclamide in potency of lowering blood sugar Gli increased release of insulin by 40%~70% in rats and rabbits and was twice as potent as glibenclamide;Glucose tolerance test showed that Gli could restrain the rising of blood glucose at 30 min and 60 min after glucose was administrated ig in rabbits Time-response relation displayed that blood glucose began to drop 30 min after Gli 1 0mg/kg administered and the levels of blood glucose dropped by 40% 3 h later CONCLUSION:The domestic Gli has similar effects to glibenclamide on lowering blood sugar However,its effect on lowering blood sugar seems to be quicker,shorter and more moderate than that of glibenclamide
