Q

sulfonylurea MOA?

A

close K+ channel in beta cells –> depol –> insulin release 2/2 Ca influx

** need islet cell function: can’t be used in T1DM

Q

alpha glucosidase inhibitors?

A

acarbose, miglitol
inhibit brush border alpha-glucosidase –> delayed carb hydrolysis and glucose absorption –> decrease post-prandial hyperglycemia

Q

PTU/methimazole MOA?

A

both: block thyroid peroxidase –> decreased thyroid hormone synth
PTU: also blocks 5’deiodinase –> decreased peripheral T4–>T3

17
Q

PTU/methimazole toxicity?

A

skin rash
agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia
PTU –> hepatotoxicity
methimazole –> teratogen - aplasia cutis

18
Q

ADH antagonists?

A

conivaptan, tolvaptan

block action of ADH at V2 receptor

19
Q

demeclocycline?

A

ADH antagonist, used in SIADH

** tox: nephrogenic DI, photosensitivity, teeth/bone abnormalities (member of tetracyclines)

20
Q

cinacalcet?

A

sensitizes Ca++ sensing receptor in parathyroid gland –> decreased PTH release
used for hyperCa in hyperPTHish

** tox: hypocalcemia
