Insulin aspart Disease Interactions

There are 3 disease interactions with insulin aspart.

Moderate

Insulin (applies to insulin aspart) renal/liver disease

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Renal Dysfunction

Insulin requirements may be diminished in patients with renal or hepatic impairment due to reduced insulin metabolism and, in the latter case, also to reduced capacity for gluconeogenesis. Lower initial dosages may be appropriate, with careful monitoring of plasma glucose levels and dosing adjustments.

Moderate

Insulin- hypokalemia

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility.

Hypokalemia may commonly occur during treatment with insulin. Use with caution in patients who may be particularly at risk of developing hypokalemia (e.g., patients using potassium-lowering medications, patients taking medications sensitive to serum potassium concentrations).

Moderate

Insulin/oral hypoglycemic agents (applies to insulin aspart) hypoglycemia

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Adrenal Insufficiency, Malnourished, Autonomic Neuropathy, Panhypopituitarism, Anorexia/Feeding Problems

Hypoglycemia may commonly occur during treatment with insulin and/or oral hypoglycemic agents. Care should be taken in patients who may be particularly susceptible to the development of hypoglycemic episodes during the use of these drugs, including those who are debilitated or malnourished, those with defective counterregulatory mechanisms (e.g., autonomic neuropathy and adrenal or pituitary insufficiency), and those receiving beta-adrenergic blocking agents.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
