Talk:Acarbose

message: WHere was the structure for acarbose sourced? I think the stereocenters might be wrong. I have a feeling it was sourced on PubChem. There are MULTIPLE acarbose structures on PubChem. See here. The think the correct stereo is as shown here oChemSpider. However, this is my opinion and it needs confirming. Help.--ChemSpiderMan (talk) 00:30, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I used PubChem as a source at the time. I'm not sure of the stereochemistry; as you just said, help :) Fvasconcellos (t·c) 00:57, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

message: It seems to me it would be interesting to have some information on patents etc, but I'm not sure if this is the norm for page on drugs? Aparently the patent for this was granted in sept 2005 (DrugPatentWatch) seems like this should be a reliable source for this info.  Any thoughts?? Seansheep (talk) 10:09, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

message: This section is not cited, and its thesis not completely (or really at all) accepted among diabetes researchers...complex metabolic syndrome has not been attributed to carbohydrate intake necessarily.  Obesity in general is certainly a risk factor for T2D, but is not the only cause.  Regardless of that debate, I'm not sure this particular section is especially germane to this entry.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by BCarver1 (talk • contribs) 11:27, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tetrasaccharide 

message: The opening paragraph contains the following sentence. "It is cheap and popular in China, but not in the U.S., because it is not potent enough to justify the side effects of diarrhea and flatulation"  It seems to me that the author meant to say "because it was not efficacious enough" as potency would not really be relevant here without another drug to contrast it with.  Also, I may be ignorant on the matter but I have never heard the use of the term flatulation.  I suspect the term flaulence would be better suited.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.84.160.177 (talk) 19:06, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
