Table 3: Clinically Significant Drug Interactions with Glyburide and Metformin Hydrochloride Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors Clinical Impact: Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors frequently cause a decrease in serum bicarbonate and induce non-anion gap, hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis.
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors may increase risk of lactic acidosis.
Examples: Topiramate, zonisamide, acetazolamide and dichlorphenamide.
Examples: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents and other highly protein-boind drugs, salicylcates, sulfonamides, chloramphenicol, probenecid, coumarins, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, beta-adrenergic blocking agents; potentially with ciprofloxacin, micronazole.
