26 Cards in this Set

  • Front

Nutrition Recommendations
Fat <30%
(Not commercially prepared fish, but have fish 2x week)
Protein: 15-20%
Exercise Effects
Increases mvmt of GLUT 4 to cell surface, improves insulin sensitivity

(IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE WEIGHT WITHOUT CALORIE RESTRICTION)
Exercise Risks
Hyperglycemia if exercise when have high glucose (insufficient insulin)

Hypoglycemia: consume carbs pre-exercise (exercise makes you insulin insensitive)

CV Risk
Avoid vigorous exercise in presence of advanced ______.
Retinopathy
Consider non-weight bearing exercise in presence of __________.
Neuropathy
UPDS study determined ________.
Progressive deterioration beta-cell function over time
Sulfonylureas:
Mechanism
Side Effects
2nd Generation Examples
Sulfonylureas bind K-ATP channels, close channel, cells depol, Ca2+ in, insulin out

Restores 25% beta cell function, but only temporarily

AE's:
Hypoglycemia (glyburide causes the most!)
Weight gain

Second Gens:
Glyburide
Glipizide
Glimepiride
Chlorpropapmide:
Class
Side Effects
First Gen Sulfonylurea

AE:
SIADH
Disulfram-like reaction
Glyburide:
Class
Side Effects
Second Generation Sulfonylureas
More hypoglycemia in older patients or pts with renal insufficiency (accumulation of glyburide due to decreased clearance; may cause CV effects bc can bind K-ATP channels of heart)
Netaglinide:
Class
Mechanism
Short-Acting Insulin Secretagogue
Bind Sulfonylurea binding site, act same way

Lower postmeal glucose excursions

AE's:
Hypoglycemia, weight gain
Repaglinide:
Class
Mechanism
Short-Acting Insulin Secretagogue
Bind Sulfonylurea binding site, act same way

Lower postmeal glucose excursions

AE's:
Hypoglycemia, weight gain
Metformin:
Class
Mechanism
Side Effects
Biguanide

Increases insulin insensitivity in liver (suppresses hepatic gluconeogenesis)

Lowers glucose without raising insulin, thus NO WEIGHT GAIN, NO HYPOGLYCEMIA

GI Distress (minimize by slow titration of dose and administer with food)
Some interference with B12 absorption

Risk for lactic acidosis increases with renal dyfn and advanced age (probably because metformin is unmetabolized by kidneys, and not excreted. BUILD UP)
Phenformin:
Class
Side Affects
Biguanide
LACTIC ACIDOSIS

(not a huge risk for metformin, also a biguanide)
Under what conditions should metformin be avoided?
Renal Dysfn
Uncompensated CHF
Use of iodinated contrast materials

Can build up and get lactic acidosis
UKPDS: effects of intensive metformin treatment
Tight Control with Metformin reduces CV mortality (MI)
Metformin: Other uses
Polycystic ovary syndrome

Decreases risk of progression of prediabetes to diabetes
Thiazolidinedione:
Mechanism
Site of Action
Examples
Binds PPAR-gamma
Which binds RXR
Which binds DNA, transcribes insulin-sensitive genes

Primarily work in adipose and skeletal muscle (concentration of PPAR-gamma is high in adipose but low in skeletal muscle)

Ex: -glitazones
Thiazolidinedione:
Side Effects
Fluid retention/edema
Weight Gain (may be due to fluid retention)
CHF
MI (rosiglitazone)
Hepatotoxicity (troglitazone)
Fracture Risk

NO HYPOGLYCEMIA
Thiazolidinedione: Other uses
PCOS, Prediabetes-->Diabetes prevention (LESS SO THAN METFORMIN)
Alpha-glucosidase Inhibitors:
Mechanism
Side Effects
Competitively inhibit alpha-glucosidase in small intestine, and pancreatic alpha-amylase

Delays breakdown of oligosaccharides to monosaccharides

Delayed glucose absorption results in lower postprandial hyperglycemia

AE's:
Undigested carbs metabolized by bacteria-->FLATULENCE

No weight gain
No hypoglycemia
Incretin Effect
If you give a glucose load in a normal person, glucose and insulin go up, then go down

If give glucose IV, insulin response is a third of the response (INCRETIN EFFECT)--must be some signal from GI input!
Effects of GLP-1
Inhibits alpha cell secretion
Stimulate beta cell secretion

Super short half-life because of DPP IV
Sitagliptin:
Mechanism
Examples
Side Effects
Inhibits DPP IV to prevent breakdown of GLP-1

Ex: -gliptins

AE's:
Upper respiratory tract infections (also causes changes in cytokines, and other small molecules)

NO weight gain (insulin secretion dependent on ambient glucose levels)
Colesevelam:
Mechanism
Side Effects
Bile-acid-binding resin: binds bile acids in GI tract, body can't reabsorb them, thus body must make new bile acids (needs to utilize cholesterol stores)
Bile acids may affect glucose somehow (complicated)

Lowers LDL

GI Side Effects
May rise TG's
Interfere with fatty soluble vitamin absorption
This drug was discovered from research in hibernating animals.
Bromocriptine
Bromocriptine:
Mechanism in DM
Side Effects
Quick release: pulse of DA agonist to brain centers; reduces postprandial glucose without increasing insulin

CV FRIENDLY

AE's
Potential to exacerbate psychosis
