http://linked.open...gbank/description
| - An inhibitor of alpha glucosidase that retards the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the small intestine and hence reduces the increase in blood-glucose concentrations after a carbohydrate load. It is given orally to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus patients where diet modification or oral hypoglycemic agents do not control their condition. (From Martindale The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 31st ed) (en)

http://linked.open...mechanismOfAction
| - Acarbose reversibly bind to pancreatic alpha-amylase and membrane-bound intestinal alpha-glucoside hydrolases. These enzymes inhibit hydrolysis of complex starches to oligosaccharides in the lumen of the small intestine and hydrolysis of oligosaccharides, trisaccharides, and disaccharides to glucose and other monosaccharides in the brush border of the small intestine.

http://linked.open...outeOfElimination
| - The fraction of acarbose that is absorbed as intact drug is almost completely excreted by the kidneys. A fraction of the metabolites (approximately 34% of the dose) was absorbed and subsequently excreted in the urine. The active metabolite is excreted into the urine and accounts for less than 2% of the total administered dose. When given intravenously, 89% of the dose was excreted into the urine as the active drug. When given orally, less than 2% of the oral dose was recovered into the urine as active (parent compound and active metabolite) drug. (en)

| - Extremely low bioavailability. Less than 2% of an oral dose of acarbose was absorbed as active drug. Peak plasma concentrations of the active drug were achieved 1 hour after dosing. Drug accumulation does not occur with multiple doses. (en)
