Abstract
Aim: Gliclazide (G) is a drug prescribed for Type 2 diabetics, although recent studies suggest it has desirable effects in both types of diabetes, Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes. G has an inconsistent absorption due to poor formulation and bile acids (BAs) have shown significant promise in drug formulation optimization. Hence, the study aimed to examine G effects on histopathological, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic effects when encapsulated with BAs. Materials & methods: Rats were randomized into eight groups, of which seven were made Type 1 diabetes and treated with various BA-based treatments. Tissue histopathology, inflammation and the bile acid profile were analyzed. Results & conclusion: G capsules showed no histological but the most anti-inflammatory effects, which suggest significant beneficial effects in diabetes treatment.
