List first gen sulfonylureas

Advatage 2nd gen has over 1st gen sulfonylureas

are these drugs highly protein bound?

MOA

Chlorpropamide t1/2
Tolbutamide - Ordinase
Acetahexamide - Dymelor
Torzolamide - Tolinase
Chlorpropamide - Diabinese

2nd gen advantage
less side effects

sulfs are highly protein bound

Diabinese (chlorpropamide)

MOA
increase insulin secreation from pancrease
List 2nd generation sulfonylureas

advantages over 1st gen

What is important to remember about glipizide?

any worries about a disulfram rxn?
Damn Glucose Goes Away

Diabeta - glyburide
Glynase - micronized glyburide
Glucotrol - glipizide
Amaryl - glimepiride

glipizide must be given on an empty stomach - all other sulfonylureas can be given with food

disulfram rxn almost negligable

MOA
secregouge
List the Meglitinides

MOA
when are they taken?
often used in conjunction with?
Repaglinide - Prandin
Nateglinide - Starlix

MOA - stimulates release of insulin from the pancreas. Fast acting, short duration, concentrating its effect around meal time.
SKIP THE MEAL, SKIP THE DOSE

taken before meals

often used in conjunction with metformin or TZD
List the Thiazolidinediones

MOA
BBW
Metabolizm
ADR
Rosiglitazone - Avandia
Pioglitazone - Actos

MOA
improves insulin sensitivity - insulin secreation remains unchanged

suppresses hepatic glucose production

**They depend on presence of insulin for their MOA

BBW
CHF

Metabolized by liver
Don't start if ALT > 2.5x ULN
DC if ALT > 3x ULN

ADR
increase rxk for gallstone formation by enhancing gallbladder stasis
List the combotherapies
Always Meet Girls And Just Pretend, oK?

Avandamet - rosiglitazone/metformin
Metaglip - metformin/glipizide
Glucovance - Metformin/glyburide
Avadaryl - rosiglitazone/glimeperide
Janumet - sitagliptin/metformin
Prandimet - repaglinide/metformin
Kombiglyze - saxagliptin/metformin
Exenatide

MOA
Dose/Adminstration
Side effect
Byetta

MOA
Incretin Memetic

GLP-1 receptor agonist that promotes insulin release from beta bells in the presence of elevated glucose concentrations

moderates glucagon secretion, decreased glucose output during periods of hyperglycemia

delays stomach emptying

Dose/Administration
SC BID, up to 60 minutes before the morning and evening meals

SE
nausea

*Risk of pancreatitis and hypoglycemia
liraglutide

MOA
Dose
Patient Counseling
Side Effects
MOA
incretin memetic
GLP-1 receptor agonist

Dose - w/ or w/out meals
start 0.6mg/day for one week to reduce GI symptoms during titration (not therapeutic dose) after one week increase dose to 1.2-1.8 mg/day

Patient Counseling
instruct patient about warning signs of pancreatitis

Side effects
N, HA, diarrhea

NOT FIRST LINE!!!!
Sitagliptin

MOA
Indication
Dose
excretion
Side effects
Januvia

MOA

INHIBITION OF DPP-4 enzyme activity for 24 hr period

reduced hepatic glucose production

DPP-4 is believed to be responisble for the breakdown of incretin hormones. By inhibiting this breakdown, we enhance the activity of the incretin hormones GLP1, GIP

Indication
monotheratpy and conjuctive therapy for DM 2

Dose
100mg daily w/wo food

Excreation - 90% by kidneys - reduce for decreased renal fnx

Side effects:
very few, 5% get nasopharyngitis
Diabetic Ketoacidosis, explain.

SSx:

Treatment

Mortality rate
DKA - caused by grossly deficient insulin availability causing a transitition from glucose to lipid oxidation and metabolism. Often caused by a lapse in insulin treatment, acute infection, trauma, infarct. Ketostix greatly understimates amt of ketones with KDA because it doesnt measure on of the metabolites with DKA

SSx:
Hyperglycemia > ~ 600mg/dL
Lethargic, glucose spill in urine (tastes sweet)
osmotic diuresis
dehydration
hypotensive
vomiting
KUSSMAUL RESPIRATION - deep, rapid respiration pattern)

Treatment
Insulin
fluids
electrolytes
heart monitor

~10% mortality rate because average patient is 5 L short of fluids and as you put in fluids, glucose and potassium go down; WATCH OUT FOR HYPOKALEMIA

Treatment
Diabetic wound healing: explain treatment.
Phenytoin is a well known Hydantoin derivative anticonvulsant, topical preparations ahve been widely used in the healing of various types of skin ulcers and large abscess cavities

Example
Phenytoin combined with Misoprostal, ketoprofen and lidocaine
Oral alfa-glucosidase inhibitors, list.

MOA
Dose/administration
Side effects
acarbose - precose
miglitol - glyset

MOA
works at the brush boarder of small intestines to inhibit breakdown of large saccharides to glucose

Dose/administration
-take with first bite of meals
start 25mg tid cf

side effects
gas, diarrhea; avoid carbohydrates for first 4-6 hours

when used as monotherapy should not cause hypoglycemia
