[Pharmacokinetical comparison of glucose and oligosaccharides for oral glucose tolerance test (author's transl)]. 1977

U Puyn, and E Gladtke

Oral loading with 5 to 10% glucose-solution for oral glucose tolerance tests gave reproducable curves of blood sugar levels. The relatively large amount of fluid administered was a factor of disturbance. Stronger solutions of glucose, e.g. 50%, altered the course of the curve and gave a delay of enteral absorption, obviously by osmotic reaction. The 25% Malto-Oligosaccharide-solution DEXTRO O.G-T. was well tolerated, gave well reproducable curves, and is recommended for oral glucose tolerance tests in children.
