4 Drug and Medication Information

4.1 Drug Indication

Intended for use as a therapeutic adjunct in the treatment of type II diabetes.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry

5.1 Pharmacology

Oral tagatose significantly blunts the rise in plasma glucose seen after oral glucose in patients with diabetes mellitus in a dose-dependent manner without significantly affecting insulin levels. The minimal elevation of plasma tagatose levels in normal patients and the adverse gastrointestinal effects seen following larger doses of tagatose support poor absorption of this hexose and suggest that tagatose may act by attenuating glucose absorption in the intestine.

5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Iron Chelating Agents

Organic chemicals that form two or more coordination links with an iron ion. Once coordination has occurred, the complex formed is called a chelate. The iron-binding porphyrin group of hemoglobin is an example of a metal chelate found in biological systems. (See all compounds classified as Iron Chelating Agents.)

5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Only 15-20 percent of tagatose is absorbed in the small intestine.

5.4 Metabolism/Metabolites

Tagatose does not influence the level of blood glucose nor insulin levels.

5.5 Mechanism of Action

he steps in the metabolism of tagatose are identical to those for fructose or fruit sugar but tagatose is incompletely absorbed. Only 15-20 percent of tagatose is absorbed in the small intestine. The major part of ingested tagatose is fermented in the colon by indigenous microflora, resulting in the production of short-chain fatty acids. The short chain fatty acids are absorbed almost completely and metabolized.
