Indications for insulin (diseases to use for)
- ß-cell failure: type I DM, pancreatitis, post-pancreatectomy
- type II DM after other meds fail
- Gestational DM
- Unstable diabetes- DKA, non-ketotic coma, hyperglycemia
Insulin side effects & drug interactions (3)
- Hypoglycemia
- para/sympathetic activity (GI, tachycardia, sweating, trembling, confusion, coma, convulsions)
- Weight gain
- Insulin allergy (rare)
Drugs:
- glucocorticoids
- oral contraceptives
- ß agonists/antagonists
10 diabetes med classes
1) Insulin secretagogues (
- sulfonylureas: glyburide, glipizide, glimepiride
- meglitinides (repaglinide, netaglinide)
2) Biguanides (metformin)
3) GLP-1 agonists (exenatide, liraglutide, lixisenatide, dulaglutide, albiglutide)
4) DPP-4 Inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, linagliptin, alogliptin)
5) SGLT2 Inhibitors (Canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, empagliflozin)
6) Amylin agonists (pramlintide)
7) Thiazolidinediones (pioglitazone, rosiglitazone)
8) å-glucosidase inhibitors (acarbose, miglitol)
9) Bile Acid Binding Resins (Colesevelam)
10) Dopamine Receptor agonists (Bromocriptine)
Metformin (class, mechanism, use, side effects)
Class: Biguanide
Mechanism: decrease hepatic glucose output- anti-hyperglycemic but not hypoglycemic
Use: first line t2 DM
Side effects: GI disturbance, decreased B12 absorption
Sulfonylureas (drugs, mechanism, use, side effects, drug interactions)
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release
Drugs: glyburide, glipizide, glimepiride (gl-)
Use: T2 DM (need functional ß-cells)
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Drug interactions: CYP3A4 inducers (barbiturates, rifampin) and glucocorticoids, oral contraceptives, thiazides, phenytoin, ß-agonists
Glyburide (class, mechanism, use, side effects, drug interactions)
Class: Sulfonylurea (insulin secretagogue)
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release
Use: T2 DM (need functional ß-cells)
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Drug interactions: CYP3A4 inducers (barbiturates, rifampin) and glucocorticoids, oral contraceptives, thiazides, phenytoin, ß-agonists
Glipizide (class, mechanism, use, side effects, drug interactions)
Class: Sulfonylurea (insulin secretagogue)
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release
Use: T2 DM (need functional ß-cells)
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Drug interactions: CYP3A4 inducers (barbiturates, rifampin) and glucocorticoids, oral contraceptives, thiazides, phenytoin, ß-agonists
Glimepiride (class, mechanism, use, side effects, drug interactions)
Class: Sulfonylurea (insulin secretagogue)
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release
Use: T2 DM (need functional ß-cells)
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Drug interactions: CYP3A4 inducers (barbiturates, rifampin) and glucocorticoids, oral contraceptives, thiazides, phenytoin, ß-agonists
Meglitinides (class, drugs, mechanism, side effects)
Class: insulin secretagogue
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release (same as sulfonylureas but unrelated structure)
Drugs: repaglinide, nateglinide (-glinide)
Use: reduce postprandial hyperglycemia, take with meals
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Nateglinide (class, mechanism, use, side effects, drug interactions)
Class: insulin secretagogue (meglitinides)
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release (same as sulfonylureas but unrelated structure)
Use: reduce postprandial hyperglycemia, take with meals
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Drug interactions:
Repaglinide (class, mechanism, use, side effects, drug interactions)
Class: insulin secretagogue (meglitinides)
Mechanism: block K+ channel to cause ß-cell depolarization and insulin release (same as sulfonylureas but unrelated structure)
Use: reduce postprandial hyperglycemia, take with meals
Side effects: weight gain, hypoglycemia
Drug interactions:
SGL2 Inhibitors (Drugs, mechanism, uses, side effects)
Drugs: canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, empagliflozin (-gliflozins)
Mechanism: inhibit kidney SGLT2, reducing glucose reabsorption, so excrete glucose in urine
Use: t2DM, not in ppl with renal impairment
Side effects: increase DKA risk, yeast infection, UTI, orthostatic HTN (due to osmotic diuresis–>HTN) and dizziness/fainting
