Effects of Lansoprazole on Sitagliptin Glucose-lowering Ability in Healthy Males
Abstract
Oral hypoglycemic medications sometimes do not control type 2 diabetes well. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) as adjunctive therapy might improve diabetes control and could enhance the hypoglycemic activity of DPP4, but there is little clinical data on efficacy of this therapeutic strategy. The investigators sought to examine the effect of PPI lansoprazole, DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin, and their combination therapy on insulin and glucose regulation in healthy subjects in oral glucose tolerance (OGTT).
Conditions: Healthy.
Primary outcome: Glucose Tolerance.
Enrollment: 16 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 16 participants or records.
