Question
under what condition is meglitinides contraindicated?
diabetes
glaucoma
diabetic ketoacidosis
arthritis
Meglitinides are oral anti - diabetic drugs used to control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes. They are contraindicated in diabetic ketoacidosis because in this condition, the body needs insulin administration rather than oral hypoglycemic agents like meglitinides. Diabetes is the condition they are used to treat, not a contraindication. Glaucoma and arthritis have no relation to the contraindication of meglitinides.
