    ABSTRACT: Sulfonylureas, a commonly-used class of medication used to treat type 2 diabetes, have been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Their effects on QT interval duration and related electrocardiographic phenotypes are potential mechanisms for this adverse effect. In eleven ethnically diverse cohorts that included 71 857 European, African American, and Hispanic/Latino ancestry individuals with repeated measures of medication use and electrocardiogram (ECG) measurements, we conducted a pharmacogenomic genome-wide association study of sulfonylurea use and three ECG phenotypes: QT, JT, and QRS intervals. In ancestry-specific meta-analyses, 8 novel pharmacogenomic loci met the threshold for genome-wide significance (P < 5 x 10−8), and a pharmacokinetic variant i

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Drug interactions

  • sulfonylurea use and QT prolongation risk Moderate

    This variant is associated with prolonged QT interval when taking sulfonylureas, increasing cardiac arrhythmia risk

    If prescribed sulfonylureas, discuss cardiac monitoring and ECG testing with your doctor
