Acarbose is a medication that helps manage blood sugar levels by slowing the digestion of carbohydrates in the body. It is commonly used alongside diet and exercise to treat type 2 diabetes and may be combined with insulin or other oral diabetes medications.

Benefits

Acarbose is effective in controlling blood sugar levels, which is crucial for managing type 2 diabetes. By delaying carbohydrate digestion, it helps prevent spikes in blood sugar after meals.

How to Use

Acarbose should be taken as directed by your healthcare provider, typically with the first bite of each main meal. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully to achieve the best results.

Possible Side Effects

  • Stomach discomfort, gas, bloating
  • Mild diarrhea
  • Mild skin rash or itching

Warnings and Precautions

Chronic Intestinal Problems: Individuals with long-term intestinal issues that affect digestion or absorption, or those with conditions that could worsen with increased gas, should avoid using acarbose.

Kidney Problems: Acarbose is not recommended for individuals with impaired kidney function. Your healthcare provider may conduct tests to ensure your kidneys are functioning adequately before prescribing this medication.

Discuss with your healthcare provider how to manage low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) while on acarbose. Traditional treatments for low blood sugar may not be effective, so alternatives like dextrose, honey, or milk may be necessary.

Inform your healthcare provider about all your health conditions and any medications, vitamins, or supplements you are taking to ensure acarbose is safe for you.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: The effects of acarbose on pregnancy and breastfeeding are not well understood. Consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Storage

Store acarbose at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep it out of reach of children and pets.

Additional Information

Acarbose may interact with other medications and supplements. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other treatments you are using to avoid potential interactions.
