title: [Mode of action of hypoglycemic sulfanilamides].
abstract: Sulfonylureas act as hypoglycemic agents by stimulating insulin secretion and improving insulin sensibility by a post-receptor mechanism. Their long term results mainly depend on extra-pancreatic mechanisms. Moreover they indirectly decrease triglyceridemia. Glipizide and gliclazide enhance fibrinolysis. Gliclazide also inhibits platelet aggregation and adhesion. The best indication of sulfonylureas is non insulin dependent diabetes with normal weight.
