A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.
Consumer:Using exenatide together with insulin glargine can increase the risk of hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring of your blood sugar to safely use both medications. Let your doctor know if you experience hypoglycemia during treatment. Symptoms of hypoglycemia include headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nervousness, confusion, tremor, nausea, hunger, weakness, perspiration, palpitation, and rapid heartbeat. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:ADJUST DOSE: Coadministration of a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist with insulin may potentiate the risk of hypoglycemia. GLP-1 receptor agonists lower blood glucose by stimulating insulin secretion and lowering glucagon secretion.
MANAGEMENT: When a GLP-1 receptor agonist is used as add-on therapy to basal insulin, a lower dosage of insulin may be required. Blood glucose should be monitored closely, and patients should be counseled to recognize the symptoms of hypoglycemia such as headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nervousness, confusion, tremor, hunger, weakness, perspiration, palpitation, and tachycardia. If hypoglycemia occurs, patients should initiate appropriate remedial therapy immediately and contact their physician. Patients should also be advised to take precautions to avoid hypoglycemia while driving or operating hazardous machinery. Concurrent use of GLP-1 receptor agonists with prandial insulin has not been studied and is generally not recommended.
