    • AnabuT/Food Interactions:

  • GeneralGeneral: In animal research, N-butyryl glucosamine has a rapid but low absorption rate (6). The effect of food, following oral administration of GlcNBu, did not significantly affect bioavailability.

    • AnabuT/Lab Interactions:

  • Glucose/InsulinGlucose/Insulin: In animal and in vitro research, a variety of glucosamine derivatives modulated insulin secretion by influencing pancreatic islet cells (5).
