%X UNASSIGNED: Between 2012 and 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 10 antidiabetic indicated therapies. Due to the limited literature on voluntarily reported safety outcomes for recently approved antidiabetic drugs, this study investigated adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
UNASSIGNED: A disproportionality analysis of spontaneously reported ADRs was conducted. FAERS reports from January 1, 2012 to March 31, 2022 were compiled, allowing a 5-year buffer following drug approval in 2017. Reporting odds ratios were calculated for the top 10 ADRs, comparing new diabetic agents to the other approved drugs in their therapeutic class.
UNASSIGNED: 127,525 reports were identified for newly approved antidiabetic medications listed as the primary suspect (PS). For sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, the odds of blood glucose increased, nausea, and dizziness being reported was greater for empagliflozin. Dapagliflozin was associated with greater reports of weight decreased. Canagliflozin was found to have a disproportionally higher number of reports for diabetic ketoacidosis, toe amputation, acute kidney injury, fungal infections, and osteomyelitis. Assessing glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, dulaglutide and semaglutide were associated with greater reports of gastrointestinal adverse drug reactions. Exenatide was disproportionally associated with injection site reactions and pancreatic carcinoma reports.
UNASSIGNED: Pharmacovigilance studies utilizing a large publicly available dataset allow an essential opportunity to evaluate the safety profile of antidiabetic drugs utilized in clinical practice. Additional research is needed to evaluate these reported safety concerns for recently approved antidiabetic medications to determine causality.
Adverse drug reactions reported for antidiabetic medications Introduction: This study investigated the trends in voluntary reporting of adverse drug reactions for recently approved antidiabetic medications. Methods: Data from the FDA Adverse Events Reporting System were evaluated. The top 10 adverse drug reactions were compared between antidiabetic medications in the same therapeutic class. Results: We identified 127,525 adverse drug reaction reports for the newer approved antidiabetic medications. For SGLT-2 inhibitors, empagliflozin was associated with greater reports of blood glucose increase, nausea, and dizziness; weight decreased was reported more often for dapagliflozin; and diabetic ketoacidosis, toe amputation, acute kidney injury, fungal infections, and osteomyelitis were reported more commonly for canagliflozin. Assessing GLP-1 receptor agonists, the odds of gastrointestinal adverse drug reactions being reported was greater for dulaglutide and semaglutide. Exenatide was disproportionally associated with injection site reactions and pancreatic carcinoma reports. Conclusion: Medication safety studies using a large publicly available dataset allows an essential opportunity to evaluate the safety profile of antidiabetic drugs in the real-world setting. Additional research is needed to determine if the reported safety concerns for recently approved antidiabetic medications to determine causality.
