Pancreatic Hormones and Anti-Diabetic Drugs Flashcards
soluble crystalline zinc insulin that is now made by recombinant DNA techniques to produce a molecular identical to that of human insulin
regular insulin
Total daily insulin requirement in units is equal to the weight in pounds divided by 4; The type of therapy prescribed in patients with type 1 DM and as well as some type 2 DM
INTENSIVE Insulin Therapy
safest sulfonylureas for elderly diabetics
Tolbutamide
MOA of Thiazolidindiones
decrease insulin resistance; Ligands of peroxisomes proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPAR-y)
Drug Interaction of Pioglitazone
Gemfibrozil
in alpha glucosidase inhibitor treatment, only 2 sugars can be transported out of the human lumen. What are these?
Glucose Fructose
If Chlorpropamide is given >500mg daily, it increases the risk of
jaundice
Chlorpropamide is contraindicated in
Elderly
Approved for use for pre-prandial use in person with type 1 & 2 DM
Pramlintide
Rosiglitazone adverse effect
Fluid retention, Heart Failure, Bone fracture
this appears to be reduced during long term metformin therapy
Absorption of Vit B12
intermediate acting insulin analogs
Neutral protamine hagedorn/isophane insulin
MOA of insulin secretagouges
Increase insulin release from the pancreas Reduction of serum glucagon levels Closure of K channels in extrapancreatic tissue
Soluble “peakless” insulin analog
Insulin Glargine
1st Generation sulfonylureas that is well absorbed but rapidly metabolized in the liver
Tolbutamide
1st Generation sulfonylureas that is slowly metabolized in the liver
Chlorpropamide
promotes glucose uptake in adipose tissues and utilization and modulates synthesis of lipid hormones or cytokines
Thiazolidinediones
Stimulates very rapid and transient release of insulin from beta cells thru closure of ATP-sensitive K channel
Nateglinide
alpha glucosidase inhibitors
Acarbose Miglitol
a condition where low titer of circulating Ig G anti insulin antibodies that neutralize the action of insulin to neglible extent develops in most insulin treated patient
Immune insulin resistance
for controlling postprandial glucose excursion
Repaglinide
delays the digestion and absorption of starch and disaccharides
alpha glucosidase inhibitors
MOAof Sitagliptin
Inhibits Dipeptidyl Peptidase Increases circulating levels of GLIP1 and GIP
delayed absorption when taken with food
Glipezide
First incretin therapy to become available for treatment of diabetes
Exenatide
diagnosed in person with type 2 DM , characterized by profound hyperglycemia and dehydration
Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic Syndrome
