Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors delay carbohydrate absorption. In order to study the effects of two new alpha-glucosidase inhibitors with long (BAYo1248) and short (BAYm1099) duration of action on glycaemic control, seventeen insulin-dependent diabetics were connected to the Biostator for 24 h and postprandial hyperglycaemia, insulin requirements and breath H2 concentrations were assessed under three conditions: (a) before administration of any alpha-glucosidase inhibitor (control experiments), (b) after administration of BAYo1248 (40 mg before breakfast, nine patients) or BAYm1099 (100 mg before breakfast and dinner, eight patients) for 1 month, (c) after 1-month administration of placebo (double-blind crossover study). All patients were on standard diets (30 kcal kg-1, 45% carbohydrate, 35% fat, 20% protein). BAYo1248 reduced postprandial hyperglycaemia and insulin requirements (vs. values in control and placebo experiments) after breakfast (124 +/- 8 vs. 159 +/- 8 and 158 +/- 8 mg dl-1, 16 +/- 2 vs. 24 +/- 4 and 23 +/- 3 units, P less than 0.01) and lunch (138 +/- 7 vs. 155 +/- 11 and 162 +/- 13 mg dl-1, 19 +/- 3 vs. 24 +/- 3 and 23 +/- 3 units, P less than 0.01) whereas BAYm1099 reduced postprandial hyperglycaemia and insulin requirements after breakfast (127 +/- 4 vs. 167 +/- 12 and 159 +/- 6 mg dl-1, 15 +/- 3 vs. 24 +/- 4 and 21 +/- 3 units, P less than 0.02) and dinner (128 +/- 4 vs. 169 +/- 7 and 157 +/- 10 mg dl-1, 19 +/- 2 vs. 28 +/- 3 and 25 +/- 2 units, P less than 0.01).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
