1
Q

What is the MOA of GLP-1/GIP agonists?

A

analog of incretin hormone GLP-1/GIP –> GLP-1/GIP increases glucose-dependent insulin secretion, decreases glucagon secretion, and slows gastric emptying which improves satiety and promotes weight loss

exenatide ER

22
Q

What drugs can be affected by GLP-1/GIP slowing gastric emptying?

A
  1. antibiotics
  2. oral contraceptives
  3. narrow therapeutic index
23
Q

A

Mounjaro/ Zepbound

24
Q

What is the MOA of SGLT-2 inhibitors?

A

inhibits sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 expressed in renal proximal tubules –> reduced reabsorption of glucose and increases urinary blood glucose concentrations

  1. ketoacidosis (D/C prior to surgery to decrease risk)
  2. genital mycotic infections
  3. UTI (urosepsis, pyelonephritis)
  4. necrotizing fasciitis
  5. hypotension and AKI due to volume depletion
  6. not recommended in dialysis
26
Q

What are warnings specific to canagliflozin and bexagliflozin?

A
  1. increased risk of foot and leg amputations
  2. risk of fractures
  3. hyperkalemia risk when used with other drugs that increase K
27
Q

What drugs in combination with SGLT-2i can increase risk of intravascular volume depletion?

A

  2. RAAS inhibitors
  3. NSAIDs
28
Q

Canagliflozin

A

Invokana

29
Q

Dapagliflozin

  2. increased thirst
  3. hypoglycemia
  4. high Mg/PO4
32
Q

What is the MOA of biguanide/metformin?

A

decreases hepatic glucose production and intestinal absorption of glucose; increases insulin sensitivity

33
Q

What are boxed warnings for metformin?

A

lactic acidosis –> increased risk with renal impairment, contrast dye, excessive alcohol, topiramate, hypoxia

34

A

GI symptoms (usually resolve over time)
1. nausea
2. diarrhea
3. flatulence
4. cramping

38
Q

What is a patient counseling point for metformin ER?

A

Swallow whole; cal leave ghost tablet in the stool

39
Q

What is the MOA of DPP-4 inhibitors?

A

prevent DPP-4 enzyme from breaking down incretin hormones GLP-1/GIP, increase glucose-dependent insulin secretion and decrease glucagon secretion
