Sulfonylurea
* are a group of drugs that stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas
  - no more injurious to nontarget crops than other commercial herbicides
  - oral medications that act primarily by stimulating endogenous insulin secretion
* can cause nausea when consumed with alcohol.
* enhance insulin release.
* exhibit a wide range in crop and weed sensitivities.
* increase the amount of insulin secreted by the pancreas.
* kill germinating seedlings.
* raise insulin levels for several hours.
* remain the most popular group of medications today.
* seem to render the myocardium more susceptible to injury.
* stimulate insulin secretion independent of the blood glucose concentration
  - the beta cells in the pancreas to make more insulin
