Lente Iletin II Disease Interactions
There are 3 disease interactions with Lente Iletin II (insulin zinc).
Insulin (applies to Lente Iletin II) renal/liver disease
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Renal Dysfunction
Insulin requirements may be diminished in patients with renal or hepatic impairment due to reduced insulin metabolism and, in the latter case, also to reduced capacity for gluconeogenesis. Lower initial dosages may be appropriate, with careful monitoring of plasma glucose levels and dosing adjustments.
Insulin- hypokalemia
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility.
Hypokalemia may commonly occur during treatment with insulin. Use with caution in patients who may be particularly at risk of developing hypokalemia (e.g., patients using potassium-lowering medications, patients taking medications sensitive to serum potassium concentrations).
Insulin/oral hypoglycemic agents (applies to Lente Iletin II) hypoglycemia
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Anorexia/Feeding Problems, Adrenal Insufficiency, Malnourished, Autonomic Neuropathy, Panhypopituitarism
Hypoglycemia may commonly occur during treatment with insulin and/or oral hypoglycemic agents. Care should be taken in patients who may be particularly susceptible to the development of hypoglycemic episodes during the use of these drugs, including those 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.
