aa substitiutions that result in precipitate formation at more neutral pH in the body

20
Q
duration of insulins:
rapid
short
intermediate
long
A

3-5 hr

4-12 hr

10-20 hr

12-20 h (glargine) r or 22-24 hr (detemir)

21
Q

most common adverse effect to insulin therapy

A

hypoglycemia

tx: give glucose or give glucagon

s/s tahcycardia, sweating, tremors, nausea, hunge, coma, loss of consciousness

22
Q

adverse effects of insulin therapy

A

hypoglycemia (insulin therapy too effective)

hypersensitivity (immune response to noninsulin prtn contaminants)

resistance (anti-insulin antibodies)

lipohypertrophy (fat deposition at injection site)

lipoatrophy (fat loss at injection site)

23
Q

MOA glucagon and use

A

treat hypoglycemia

injected peptide

catabolism of stored glycogen to increase blood glucose levels

24
Q

key points metformin

A
  • first line agent
  • doesn’t produce hypoglycemia
  • not dependent upon B cell function
25
Q

MOA metformin

A

decreases hepatic glucose output [via activation of AMPK] and increases peripheral glucose utilization

26
Q

adverse effects metformin

A

GI disturbances

vit B12 deficiency

27
Q

sulfonylureas

A

glimepiride
glipizide
glyburide

28
Q

meglitinides

A

repaglinide

nateglinide

29
Q

MOA sulfonylureas and meglitinides

A

inhibition of ATP sensitive K channel of B cell –> insulin release

30
Q

adverse effects sulfonylureas and meglitinides

A

weight gain

hypoglycemia

31
Q

glucosidase inhibitors

A

acarbose

miglitol

32
Q

key points glucosidase inhibitors

A
  • taken with a meal
  • contraindicated for pts with GI diseases
  • hypoglycemia can occur if in combo with other drugs
  • treat hypoglycemia with oral glucose
33
Q

MOA glucosidase inhibitors

A

inhibition of brush border glucosidase enzyme and subsequent absorption of glucose

34
Q

adverse effects glucosidase inhibitors

A

abdominal pain
diarrhea
flatulence

due to unabsorbed carbs

35
Q

MOA TZD thiazolidinediones

A

increase transcription of GLUT 4

  • decrease peripheral resistance by activation peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma
  • effect on glucose metabolism, insulin signaling
36
Q

adverse effects TZDs

A

**cardiovascular

also peripheral edema, WG, hepatotoxicity, bone fractures, hypoglycemia

37
Q
