Certain novel oral antidiabetic compositions are disclosed. These pharmaceutical compositions involve the concomitant use of two different organic chemical compounds each chosen from a separate class of known hypoglycemic agents. One class of agents involves certain known oxazolidine-2,4-dione compounds (A), while the other class is primarily concerned with a series of known hypoglycemic sulfonylureas (B). Preferred embodiments involve the use of 5-(3-thienyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione, 5-(4-ethoxy-3-thienyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione, 5-(2-methoxy-6-fluorophenyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione, 5-(2-methoxy-6-chlorophenyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione or 5-(2-ethoxy-5-chloro-3-pyridyl)oxazolidine-2,4-dione as compound (A) in conjunction with either chlorpropamide or glipizide as compound (B). Various methods for administering these compounds in combination and/or in a concomitant manner are provided. |
