Single- and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of repaglinide in patients with type 2 diabetes and renal impairment

Abstract: Patients with type 2 diabetes and mild or moderate impairment of renal function may be treated with repaglinide without special precautions. If repaglinide is used in patients with severely impaired renal function, dose adjustment may be necessary if indicated by blood glucose measurements.

“…Similarly, α-glucosidase inhibitors (acarbose and miglitol) are also contraindicated in patients with renal failure, whereas the non-sulfonylurea insulin secretagogues repaglinide and nateglinide can be used in patients with renal failure without dose adjustments [29]. In the absence of contraindications, metformin is preferred over other agents due to equal potency and a low risk of hypoglycemia, and also as it causes less weight gain compared with insulin secretagogues.…”

“…This is not surprising since glinides have primarily a role in the treatment of T2DM when an oral agent is needed in case of RI 38. It is, however, unclear that glinides offer any advantages over SUs in terms of hypoglycemia, and several meta-analyses from the literature have concluded against any hypoglycemic benefit of this class compared with SUs 39,40.…”

“…Repaglinide can accumulate in patients with advanced renal dysfunction (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ) without significant increase in hypoglycemia [75]. A metabolite of nateglinide, that has modest hypoglycemic effect, accumulates in patients with CKD [76].…”
