Minor drug interactions do not usually cause harm or require a change in therapy. However, your healthcare provider can determine if adjustments to your medications are needed.
Professional:Large doses of soluble dietary fibers such as guar gum, psyllium, or methylcellulose may add to the hypoglycemic effect of insulin and oral antidiabetic agents. Soluble fibers slow the rate of carbohydrate degradation and glucose absorption during digestion, thus they can reduce postprandial blood glucose when taken in large amounts. Soluble dietary fibers are often considered beneficial as an adjunct to insulin and oral antidiabetic agents in the management of diabetes. However, patients should be monitored for changes in diabetic medication requirements following initiation of fiber therapy.
