78
Q

71 yo female with PMH heart failure, T2DM, HTN and dyslipidemia

which guideline?
what is the target range and therapeutic goal?
Drug options?

A
loose target--> ADA
A1C <7.5%
FBG 80-130
PPG <180
goal is to minimize hypoglycemia

Metformin
then SGLT2 with HF benefits (Empa or Dapa)

79
Q
60 yo male with PMH gout, T2DM x 2 years
A1c = 8.0%
which guideline?
what is the target range and therapeutic goal?
Drug options? 

what if 3 months goes by and not at goal a1c?

A
strict target --> AACE
A1C <6.5%
FBG <110
PPG <140
goal is to minimize macro and micro vascular complications

dual or triple therapy (1 of the therapies is metformin)
GLP1RA, SGLT2i, DPP4i, TZD, SU/GLN

@ 3 mo with a1c above goal, add basal insulin

a1c: <8% >8%
0. 1-0.2U/kg 0.2-0.3U/kg

80
Q

55 yo patient (81kg) PMH HTN, T2DM x 3 yrs
Medications: Empagliflozin 10 mg po qd, Tresiba 30U qd, Lisinopril 20 mg po qd, Metformin 1000mg po BID, Ozempic
A prandial insulin dose is to be added to the patients regimen since the a1c is still above goal even after basal insulin. What guideline and basal dose should be given? what are drug options?
What side effects should be monitored?

A

use AACE guidelines since the patient is under 65–> strict targets

10% of basal = 30(0.10) = 3U
Humalog or Novolog

eat within 15 min of using, monitor FBG,PPG
lipohypertrophy (rotate injections)

81
Q

How do we start basal and bolus at the same time according to AACE (strict) guidelines?

A

0.3-0.5U/kg/d
50% as basal
50% as bolus /3 = per meal

82
Q

How do we add a basal insulin according to ADA (loose) guidelines? Bolus?

A

basal is 0.1-0.2U/kg/day

bolus is 4U/day or 10% of basal at one meal
