In an animal study, an aqueous extract of collard leaves and stems has been shown to reduce glucose levels. Collard extract 60 mg/kg lowers blood glucose levels in a rat model of diabetes after both single- and multi-dose oral administration similarly to glibenclamide 5 mg/kg (105712). Theoretically, collard extract might have additive effects when used concomitantly with antidiabetes drugs and may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments may be necessary. Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), chlorpropamide (Diabinese), glipizide (Glucotrol), and tolbutamide (Orinase).
