Diabetes Pharm III Lecture Flashcards
What is the cause of Type I Diabetes
Results from autoimmune destruction of B cells in the pancreas
What is the cuase of type II Diabetes
Results from progressive insulin resistance, decreased insulin resistiane, increased hepatic glucose output
What is a fasting, glucose that shows diabetes
126 or more
What is an A1C that is assoc with diabetes
Greater than 6.5
In a diabetic pt, dropping the DBP from 90 to 80, what is the reduction in major CV risk
50 % reduction
What is the ratio of A1c and Microvascular complications
Q 1% drop in A1c reduces the micro vasc risk by 40%
What is the leading cause of blindness in pts aged 20-74 y/o
DM
What is the 1st line medicaiton for DM
Metfromin
What is the perferrec agent in gestastional DM
Insulin
What is hypoglycemia
Blood glucose less than 70 mg/dl
What is level 1 hyporglycemia
60~70 mg/dl
Tx: 15/15/15 rule
15 gram carbs, wait 15 minutes(eval) , and then treat 15 more grams
What is level 2 hypoglycemia
Glucose 41~59 *( this pt can have CNS defects)
30/15/30 rule
30 mg of Carbs, wait 15 - eval, then 30 more Carbs
What is level 3 hypo gl
Less than 40
These pts may have SZR,
Tx with Glucagon 1 mg Sub Q ot 50 mls of D5W
What is the gl goal for hypoglycemia
Gl level above 70 and resolution of negative s/s
Wha is DKA
DM keto acidosis
Inability to produce insulin
(Common in Type I pts)
Hallmark labs are hyper gl, acidosis, anion gap, large ketones in the urine
What is a glucose higher than 600
HHS
What are the rapid acting insulins
Lispro, aspart, gluilisine
What is afrezza
Inhaled insulin
How must inhaled insulin be used
Must be used with a long acting insulin
Caution in use with Asthma pts or Smokers
What are the two short acting insulins
Humilin R or Novolin R
What are the DOC for IV insulin infusions
Short acting insulins ( humilin or Novolin)
What is the formulation of Insulin that is use in severe insulin resistance pts
U-500 Insulin ( short acting)
What are the two versions of NPH insulin
Humulin N and Novolin N
What are the two types of long acting insulin
Glargine and detemir
What is the DOC for pregnant insulin meds
reg insulin U-100
What are the two approaches to T1DM tx
Multi daily dose or continous subq infusion
What is the insulin dosing for Type1DM
0.5units/ Kg
What is the relationship between insulin and CHO ratio
1 unit of insulin for every 15 gm of CHO
What is the number to remember for regular insulin CHO coverage
450/TDD
What is the number to remember for rapid acting insulin CHO coverage
500/TDD
What is the corrective coverage for regualar insulin
1500/TDD
Corrective dose would be (current BG-desired BG) / (1500/TDD)
What is the corrective dose with rapid acting insulin
1800/TDD
Corretive dose (Current BG-deisred BB) / ( 1800/TDD)
What is the dawn phenomenon
Insuff evening basal insulin leads to AM hyperglycemia ( solution increase evening basal insulin)
What is the somogyi effect
To much insulin in the evening leads to hypoglycemia at night with compensatory hyperglycemia in the AM
(Drop the evening insulin)
What are the risk fx for DM2
Sedetery lifestyle Diet Hyperlipidieam Black people Women Obesity
What is the goal of A1C in DM2
Less than 7
What are the excercise recommendations for DM
150 min of moderate intensity for more than 3 adays a week with no more than 2 days without excercise
Resestiance training at least 2 times a week
Because of the viscocity of the blood in a pt with DM what anitplatlet drug is recommended
Asprin
A pt presents with an AIC above 6.5%, what is the 1st step of DM2 Tx
Start metformin if A1C is below 10
A pt presents with an A1C above 10%, what is the 1st step in tx
Start insulin
A pt presents with an A1C thats 1.5% thier goal (6.5) what is the first step
Ao Metformin + a second agent
Can GLP-1s be used with DPP-4s in DM2 managment
NO!
A DM2 Pt has ASCVD or must lose wieght what is the Tx approach
GLP1 or SGLT2Inhb, then add which ever one you didnt use before, then add DPP-4 inhipitor( must remove GLP-1), lastly if all that doesnt work you can add Basal insulin
What is the Tx approach to refractory DM2 tx
GLP-1 + metformin ( basal insulin)
Then add preprandial Rapid acting insulins
In a pt with HF/CKD with DM2 what is the tx approach
Metformin, plus SGLT2 inhibitor, then GLP-1, THen DDP-4 (must remove the GLP-1) then laast resort basal insulin
