Q

Mechanism of action: Metformin

A

bypasses insulin receptor–> directly into cell–> stim PPAR and inhibits mitochondrial glycerophosphate dehydrogenase–> ↑ tissue sensitivity to insulin and ↓ liver gluconeogensis

19
Q

SE’s of Metformin

A

possible lactic acidosis, GI distress; CI in CHF. NO weight or hypoglycemia

20
Q

Mechanism of action: Acarbose & Miglitol

A

inhibits a-glucosidase in SI–>↓ breakdown of glucose to absorbable carb–>↓ postprandial glucose–> ↓insulin demand. NO HYPOGLYCEMIA

21
Q

SE’s of Acarbose & Miglitol

A

GI discomfort, flatulence, diarrhea, hepatotoxicity

22
Q

Thiazolidinediones

A

Pioglitazone and Rosiglitazone

23
Q

Mechanism of action: Thiazolidinediones

A

bind to nuclear PPARy–> transcription of insulin-responsive genes–> sensitization of tissues to insulin, ↓hepatic gluconeogenesis and TGs, and ↑insulin receptor numbers

24
Q

SE’s of Thiazolidinediones

A

GOOD: less hypoglycemia than sulfonylureas, ↓TG ↑HDL

BAD: weight gain, bone fractures, increased bladder cancer and edema; CI in CHF; Rosiglitazone ↑ LDL

25
Q

Mechanism of action: Exenatide

A

GLP-1 receptor agonist; GLP-1 ↑glucose-dependent insulin secretion, ↓glucagon secretion, slows gastric emptying, ↑satiety; used in type 2 diabetes in combo w/other

26
Q

SE’s of Exenatide

A

nausea, hypoglycemia w/sulfonylureas, acute pancreatitis, caution w/renal insufficiency

27
Q

Mechanism of action: Sitagliptin

A

inhibits DPP-4 (which normally inactivates GLP-1)

28
Q

Mechanism of action: Repaglinide and Nateglinide

A

Closes K channels–>stimulates insulin release; T2DM

29
Q

Mechanism of action: Pramlintide

A

slows rate of food absorption–> ↓glucose production and ↓appetite; T1DM and T2DM

30
Q

Meglitinides: Drug types and SE’s

A

Repaglinide and Nateglinide; weight gain, hypoglycemia, very short acting

31
Q

Other GLP-1 Receptors agonists

A

Liraglutide, Albiglutide, Dulaglutide

32
Q

Other DPP-4 inhibitors

A

Alogliptin, Saxagliptin, Linagliptin

33
Q

A

Some urticaria/angioedema; URIs, headace; some pancreatitis; weight neutral, no hypoglycemia

34
Q

Sodium glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors

A

Canagliflozin, Dapaglifozin, Empagliflozin

35
Q

Mechanism of action: SGLT2 inhibitors

A

↓ glucose resorption in kidney–>↑ urinary glucose excretion

36
Q

SE’s of SGLT2 inhibitors

A

Volume depletion, hyperkalemia; UTI’s, genital infections; ↑LDL; no weight gain or hypoglycemia

37
Q

Bile acid sequestrant

A

Colesevelam

38
Q

Mechanism of action: Colesevelam

A

binds bile acid/cholesterol–> ↓hepatic glucose production; NO hypoglycemia, ↓LDL

39
Q

SE’s of Colesevelam

A

Constipation, ↑TGs

40
Q

Rapidly acting insulins (3)
