  3. Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketonic state
  4. Hypoglycemia
30
Q

Which is the first line treatment of DM2 + its side effects.

A

Metformin (biguanides) -> improves peripheral glucose uptake, high insulin sensitivity, low hepatic glucose production

Side effects: nausea, vomiting, flatulence, diarrhea, abdominal pain, lactic acidosis, weight loss

31
Q

Side effects + mechanism of sulfanylureas + examples.

A

Increase the pancreatic secretion of insulin

Side effects: hypoglycemia, weight gain, renal impairment

1st: chlopropamide
2nd: glibenclamide, gliquidone, gliclazide
3rd: glimepiride

32
Q

Meglitinides: side effects +mechanism

A

Repaglinide + nateglinide

Increased secretion if insulin
Side effects: hypoglycemia, weight gain

33
Q

Thiazoladinediones: side effects, mechanism.

A

Decrease insulin resistance

Pyoglitazone + rosigitazone

Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia, heart failure, edema

34
Q

Alpha glucosidase inhibitors: side effects, mechanism.

A

Acarbose

Blocks glucose absorption in the bowel
Take it before every meal

Side effects: flatulence, diarrhea, abdominal pain

35
Q

Glucagon like peptide-1 : everything

A

Exenatide 2 injection/day

Mechanism: decrease glucagon release, decrease gastric emptying, improves insulin sensitivity
