Rapid delivery of hyperosmolar chyme to the We conclude that in patients with reactive hypoglycaemia due to gastrointestinal surgery, acarbose decreases rapid glucose absorption associated with hyperglycaemia and GLP-1 secretion, and thus diminishes excessive insulin release
Dumping syndrome (DS) is a typical side effect of stomach surgery, which includes cancer, non-cancer esophageal and gastric surgery, and bariatric surgery
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Acarbose , an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, that diminishes the indigestion and resorption of carbohydrates and is therefore actully the first step treatment of choice in late dumping syndrome [42,43,44]
Dietary strategies can ameliorate symptoms, but this approach is not always foolproof
Dumping syndrome, a well-recognized complication of post-RYGB, can be separated into early and late forms Next step of therapy includes acarbose, which is effective for late dumping symptoms, but the use is limited due to side effects
Postprandial hypoglycemia can occur in patients with gastric bypass surgery in the context of the dumping syndrome, although most of the associated symptoms are likely vascular in origin
Treatment options of dumping syndrome include diet, medications, and surgical revision
Dumping syndrome (DS) occurs when the stomach empties food into the small bowel at a faster rate than normal
Acarbose is an oral antidiabetic agent that inhibits the enzyme alpha-glucosidase and reduces the rate of
The dumping syndrome consists of early postprandial abdominal and vasomotor symptoms, resulting from osmotic fluid shifts and release of vasoactive neurotransmitters, and late symptoms secondary to reactive hypoglycemia
Rapid gastric emptying is a condition in which food moves too quickly from your stomach to your duodenum
Radionuclide Scintography, also known as Gastric Scintography, demonstrates rapid gastric emptying with standardized tests
Acarbose (Precose) Patients with type-2 diabetes are commonly given this type of medication
Prescription dumping syndrome treatments include Sandostatin (octreotide) and Prandase or Precose (acarbose)
