20 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Insulin Lispro (HUMALOG)
rapid acting insulin
Insulin Aspart (NOVOLOG)
rapid acting insulin

(Pro prevents aggregation)
Insulin Glulisine (APIDRA)
rapid acting insulin

(increase solubility & decrease aggregation)
Neutral Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) (Isophane)
Intermediate acting insulin.
Insulin Glargine (LANTUS)
Long acting Insulin
Sustained peak less profile
Can't be mixed short/rapid acting insulin
Insulin Detemir
Long acting Insulin
binds to albumin
Can't be mixed with other insulins
Sulfunylureas
Increase insulin release

indications: DM2 postprandial glucose reduction, PNDM tx

Ex. Tolbutamide, glipizide, glyburide, glimeperide
Mech: Bind K+ channel, close it and this leads to depolarization and release of insulin
Can cause severe hypoglycemia

NOT indicated for DM1
Repaglinide
Increase insulin release
(family Meglitinide)
Mech: Bind K+ channel, close it and this leads to depolarization
Less hypoglycemia problems than SUs and shorter acting
Nateglinide
Increase insulin release
(family Meglitinide)
TZDs (Thiazolidinediones)
Increase insulin sensitivity
Ex. Rogiglitazone & Pioglitazone
Mech: PRR-gamma agonist, activates insulin genes and only effective when insulin around
Blackbox CHF
Can lead to hepatotoxity, contraindicated if liver problems
Pramlintide (SYMLIN)
Amylin
Suppress glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying & suppress appetite
Decreases HA1c levels without weight gain

SE: Can cause hypoglycemia in T1DM
Biguinides
Metformin
Increase insulin sensitivity
Mech: reduces glucneogenesis in liver and increases insulin action in muscles/fat
Doesn't induce hypoglycemia
Sitagliptin (JANUVIA)
DPP-IV inhibitors
Increase endogenous GIP-1 levels
Saxagliptin (ONGLYZA)
DPP-IV inhibitors
Increase endogenous GIP-1 levels
Exenantide
GLP-1 agonists from gila monster resistant to DPP-IV
Increase Insulin secretion, Decrease Glucagon, slows gastric emptying
Acarbose
alpha glucosidase inhibitors
Inhibits digestion of polysaccharides
Miglitol
alpha glucosidase inhibitors
Inhibits digestion/absorption of polysaccharides
diazoxide

Proglycem
= treatment for Hyperinsulinism of Infancy (HI)

-opens ATP-sensitive K+ channel by activating Kir6.2 -> hyperpolarizes -> decreased insulin secretion

side effects: Na+ retention, edema
diazoxide
Used to treat HI (Hyperinsulinism of Infancy)

Mech: Opens K+ channels (activates kir6.2), which hyperpolarizes the cell and less insulin released
Treatment for PNDM (Permanent Neonatal DM)
SUs (glyburide, Glipizide, Glimepiride)
