4.3 Drug Indication

Used in the management of diabetes mellitus type 2 (adult-onset).


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Acetohexamide is an intermediate-acting, first-generation oral sulfonylurea. It lowers blood sugar by stimulating the pancreatic beta cells to secrete insulin and by helping the body use insulin efficiently. Due to its primary action on the pancreatic beta cells, the drug is only effective when there are functional pancreatic beta cells that can produce insulin granules. Acetohexamide has one-third the potency of chlorpropamide, and twice the potency of tolbutamide; however, similar hypoglycemic efficacy occurs with equipotent dosage of sulfonylureas.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Hypoglycemic Agents

Substances which lower blood glucose levels. (See all compounds classified as Hypoglycemic Agents.)


5.3 ATC Code

A - Alimentary tract and metabolism

A10 - Drugs used in diabetes

A10B - Blood glucose lowering drugs, excl. insulins

A10BB - Sulfonylureas

A10BB31 - Acetohexamide


5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Rapidly absorbed from the GI tract.


ACETOHEXAMIDE IS RAPIDLY ABSORBED, & MAX HYPOGLYCEMIC ACTIVITY IS OBSERVED ABOUT 3 HR AFTER INGESTION. TOTAL DURATION OF ACTION IS 12-24 HR. MUCH OF ACTIVITY IS ASCRIBABLE TO METABOLITE, HYDROXYHEXAMIDE, WHICH HAS PLASMA T/2 OF ABOUT 6 HR...ACETOHEXAMIDE, HAS PLASMA T/2 OF 1.3 HR.

5.5 Metabolism/Metabolites

Extensively metabolized in the liver to the active metabolite hydroxyhexamide, which exhibits greater hypoglycemic potency than acetohexamide. Hydroxyhexamide is believed to be responsible for prolonged hypoglycemic effects.

American Society of Hospital Pharmacists. Data supplied on contract from American Hospital Formulary Service and other current ASHP sources., p. 1964


Sulfonylureas are rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, transported in the blood in highly protein-bound complexes, and subjected to extensive hepatic metabolism (except for chlorpropamide). Wide variation exists among the sulfonylureas in hepatic metabolism and remnal clearance, factors that tend to alter the steady-state serum levels. Metabolites may be active, so there may be a variation between the plasma half-life of the parent drug and the degree of hypoglycemia encountered. /Sulfonylurea/

5.6 Biological Half-Life

Elimination half-life of the parent compound is 1.3 hours and the elimination half-life of the active metabolite is approximately 5-6 hours.

5.7 Mechanism of Action

Sulfonylureas such as acetohexamide bind to an ATP-dependent K+ channel on the cell membrane of pancreatic beta cells. This inhibits a tonic, hyperpolarizing outflux of potassium, which causes the electric potential over the membrane to become more positive. This depolarization opens voltage-gated Ca2+ channels. The rise in intracellular calcium leads to increased fusion of insulin granulae with the cell membrane, and therefore increased secretion of (pro)insulin.

Goodman, L.S., and A. Gilman. (eds.) The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. 5th ed. New York: Macmillan Publishing Co., Inc., 1975., p. 1520


Sulfonylureas are now...thought to act by a number of different mechanisms. 1. ...produce a depolarization of the pancreatic islet beta cell membrane potassium ion permeability. This results in a release of preformed insulin into the circulation and occurs mostly in non-insulin dependent diabetics. 2. ...reduce basal glucose output from the liver... 3. increase insulin receptor binding... 4. ...increasing intracellular levels of AMP... 5. increase insulin secretion by suppressing the release of glucagon and somatostatin from alpha and delta pancreatic cells. /Sulfonylureas/

Ellenhorn, M.J., S. Schonwald, G. Ordog, J. Wasserberger. Ellenhorn's Medical Toxicology: Diagnosis and Treatment of Human Poisoning. 2nd ed. Baltimore, MD: Williams and Wilkins, 1997., p. 723


Sulfonylureas lower blood glucose in NIDDM by directly stimulating the acute release of insulin from functioning beta cells of pancreatic islet tissue by an unknown process that involves a sulfonylurea receptor on the beta cell. Sulfonylureas inhibit the ATP potassium channels on the beta cell membrane and potassium efflux, which results in depolarization and calcium influx, calcium-calmodulin binding, kinase activation, and release of insulin containing granules by exocytosis, an effect similar to that of glucose. Insulin is a hormone that lowers blood glucose and controls the storage and metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Therefore, sulfonylureas are effective only in patients whose pancreata are capable of producing insulin. /Sulfonylurea antidiabetic agents/
