Interactions between Nateglinide and Soliqua

Nateglinide has a moderate potential interaction with Adrenal Insufficiency.

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.

The lixisenatide in Soliqua has a major potential interaction with Alcoholism.

Acute pancreatitis, including fatal and non- fatal hemorrhagic or necrotizing pancreatitis, has been reported postmarketing in patients treated with lixisenatide. Some patients had risk factors such as cholelithiasis and alcohol abuse. Patients should be observed carefully for any symptoms of pancreatitis including persistent abdominal pain, sometimes radiating to the back, that may or may not be accompanied by vomiting. If pancreatitis is suspected, lixisenatide should be discontinued and appropriate management should be established. If pancreatitis is confirmed, lixisenatide should not be restarted. Lixisenatide is not recommended for patients with history of pancreatitis.

The lixisenatide in Soliqua has a major potential interaction with Anaphylaxis.

The use of lixisenatide may result in cross-sensitivity in patients with a history of anaphylaxis reaction or angioedema to another GLP-1 receptor agonist. These patients should be informed of the risk of anaphylaxis when using lixisenatide. Close monitoring is recommended when prescribing lixisenatide to these patients.

Nateglinide has a major potential interaction with Cardiovascular Conditions and Disorders.

The use of oral hypoglycemic agents may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality compared to treatment with diet alone or diet with insulin. This warning is based on the University Group Diabetes Program (UGDP) study, a long-term prospective clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of glucose-lowering drugs in preventing or delaying vascular complications in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Patients treated with diet plus a fixed dosage of either tolbutamide (a sulfonylurea) or phenformin (a biguanide) for 5 to 8 years had a cardiovascular mortality rate approximately 2.5 times that of patients treated with diet alone, resulting in discontinuation of both these treatments in the study. Despite controversy regarding interpretation of these results, clinicians and patients should be aware of the potential risk when making treatment decisions for diabetes, particularly in the presence of underlying cardiovascular disease. Data are not available for other sulfonylureas or biguanides, nor for hypoglycemic agents belonging to other classes. However, given the similarities in chemical structure and/or mode of action, the same caution should be applied.

Nateglinide has a major potential interaction with Diabetes, Type 1.

The use of meglitinides is contraindicated in patients with type I diabetes or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis, with or without coma.

The lixisenatide in Soliqua has a major potential interaction with Gallstones.

Acute pancreatitis, including fatal and non- fatal hemorrhagic or necrotizing pancreatitis, has been reported postmarketing in patients treated with lixisenatide. Some patients had risk factors such as cholelithiasis and alcohol abuse. Patients should be observed carefully for any symptoms of pancreatitis including persistent abdominal pain, sometimes radiating to the back, that may or may not be accompanied by vomiting.

Lixisenatide is not recommended for patients with history of pancreatitis.

The lixisenatide in Soliqua has a major potential interaction with Gastroparesis.

Lixisenatide slows gastric emptying and patients with preexisting gastroparesis were excluded from clinical trials. Lixisenatide should not be used in patients with severe gastroparesis.

The insulin glargine in Soliqua has a moderate potential interaction with Hypokalemia.

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).

Nateglinide has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

Nateglinide is primarily metabolized in the liver to both pharmacologically active and inactive substances. Patients with impaired liver function may be exposed to higher concentrations of nateglinide and its associated metabolites. Higher serum drug levels, in addition to diminished gluconeogenic capacity secondary to hepatic insufficiency, may increase the potential for severe hypoglycemic episodes. Therapy with nateglinide should be administered cautiously in patients with liver disease. Dosage adjustments may be necessary in moderate to severe hepatic impairment, although clinical data are lacking.

The insulin glargine in Soliqua has a moderate potential interaction with Liver Disease.

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.

Nateglinide has a moderate potential interaction with Malnourishment.

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.

The lixisenatide in Soliqua has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Acute kidney injury and worsening of chronic renal failure which sometimes required hemodialysis has been reported postmarketing in patients treated with lixisenatide. Renal function should be closely monitored when initiating or escalating doses. Lixisenatide is not recommended for patients with end stage renal disease. Patients with mild and moderate renal impairment need close monitoring but no dose adjustment. There is limited experience in patients with severe renal impairment but drug exposure showed to be higher, so close monitoring is recommended for changes in renal function or gastrointestinal adverse reactions.
