Product Information

water and electrolyte disturbances that could be aggravated by increased glucose and/or free water load (see above). Clinical evaluation and periodic laboratory determinations may be necessary to monitor changes in fluid balance, electrolyte concentrations, and acid-base balance during prolonged parenteral therapy or whenever the condition of the patient or the rate of administration warrants such evaluation. Particular caution is advised in patients at increased risk of water and electrolyte disturbances that could be aggravated by increased free water load, hyperglycaemia or possibly required insulin administration (see below).

When using an infusion pump all clamps on the intravenous administration set must be closed before removing the administration set from the pump, or switching the pump off. This is required regardless of whether the administration set has an anti-free flow device. Unverbindliche Preisempfehlung des Herstellers (UVP).

The test strips in glucometers contain an enzyme glucose oxidase, which reacts with glucose in the blood and sends the result as an electronic signal displayed on the monitor. In turn, Fernandez-Herrera et al. proposed per- O-acetylated 1- O-trichloroacetimidate, with phthaloyl protection (Phth) of the amine function ( 14), as a suitable donor for diosgenin glycosylation ( Figure 4). They obtained only β-anomer of saponin 19 in a glycosylation reaction promoted by TMSOTf; the yield was 96% [ 48]. Tan’s research group also used a similar procedure to obtain 19, but with a slightly worse yield (80%) [ 49]. Saponins 18 and 19 were also synthesised in the reactions of diosgenin with bromides 15 and 16, respectively ( Figure 4) [ 50]. The authors obtained only the α anomer of 15 and a mixture of anomers α + β in a case of 16. These bromides were later used without further purification in the coupling reaction with diosgenin in the presence of AgOTf. The reaction yields were 98% and 90%, respectively. Extremely important is that derivatives of diosgenyl d-glucosaminosides, which are active against antimicrobials and/or cancers (hydrochloride, N-alkyl, N-aminoacyl active), are non-toxic to human red blood cells.

In the subsequent years, other glycosyl donors were tested for the synthesis of diosgenyl glucosaminosides. Kaskiw et al. used 3,4,6-tri- O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-(2′,2′,2′-trichloroethoxycarbonyl- amino)-α- d-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate ( 13) [ 46]. The 2,2,2-trichoroetoxycarbonyl group (Troc) is stable under a wide range of standard conditions used in the synthesis of glucosamine derivatives. Additionally, it belongs to potential participating groups, which promote the formation of 1,2- trans-glycosides. The authors obtained saponin 18 (98%) in the reaction of 13 with diosgenin in the presence of TMSOTf as the catalyst ( Figure 4). Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the Yellow Card Scheme. The most common side effects of this medicine are gastrointestinal discomfort and flatulence. Consult your doctor if these bother you or do not go away. Glucobay 50 Tablet by itself does not cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels). However, when used in combination with other diabetes medicines (especially insulin or sulphonylureas), it can lead to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels). Such episodes of hypoglycemia should be treated by taking plain glucose. Table sugar or common sugar will not help correct low blood sugar levels if you are taking this medicine.Hydrochloride of diosgenyl β- d-glucosaminoside ( 11 .HCl) was the first diosgenyl glycosaminoside which has been tested for cytotoxic activity. Importantly, this compound does not exhibit antiproliferative activity against non-tumoral cells—peripheral lymphocyte blood cells [ 48]. Further antitumor tests on 11 .HCl determined its independent effect and in combination with 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine (2-CdA, cladribine) on lymphocytes isolated from the patients suffering from chronic B-cell lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) [ 41]. It was found that this saponin is cytotoxic towards B-CLL—it induces apoptosis and necrosis of some leukemic B-cells. Additionally, 11 .HCl enhances the cytostatic effect of 2-CdA, significantly reducing (20–30%) the number of lymphatic cancer cells in some patients. This could indicate that the tested saponin increases B-cell membrane permeability and facilitates the penetration of the drug into the tumor cell. In turn, in in vitro studies on the other tumor cells, including cervical carcinoma cells—HeLa, CaSKi, ViBo—and human leukemia cells—HEL, K562, HL60 and melanoma WM9—were conducted. The hydrochloride of 11 shows only a moderate antiproliferative effect (IC 50 ranging from 10.7 to 41 µM) [ 48, 49]. However, it is worth adding that 11 .HCl shows better inhibitory activity toward the tested cancer cell lines than the starting material, which is diosgenin (IC 50 values 63.8–81 µM) [ 49].

The product should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration after admixing and prior to administration. Do not administer unless the solution is clear and the seal is intact.

Interaction with drugs

Difficulties associated with the isolation and purification of saponins from natural sources force its synthesis. In addition, chemical modifications create opportunities to obtain new compounds, often with more favourable therapeutic properties compared to naturally occurring or reference substances. Saponins, especially diosgenyl glycosides, are attractive candidates for new drug design and development due to their valuable properties: anti-inflammatory [ 13, 14], antimicrobial [ 27], anti-coagulant [ 28], anti-cancer [ 30, 31, 32] and gelling [ 59]. Depending on the tonicity of the solution, the volume and rate of infusion and depending on a patient's underlying clinical condition and capability to metabolize glucose, intravenous administration of glucose can cause electrolyte disturbances most importantly hypo- or hyperosmotic hyponatraemia.

A gradual increase of flow rate should be considered when starting administration of glucose-containing products. Diosgenyl β- d-glucosaminoside hydrochloride ( 11 .HCl) and N-alkyl analogs ( 41– 44) have been tested for hemolytic activity by determining the minimum hemolytic concentration (MHC) [ 77]. The results of tests showed that these saponins are non-toxic to human red blood cells. Hemolysis was not observed even when the erythrocytes were exposed to 256 μg/mL concentration of saponins, which is many times higher than the MIC = 2–4 μg/mL for the majority of isolated Candida species.

If undetected and untreated hyperglycaemia can lead to dehydration, hyperosmolar coma and death.
