What are the newer agents of diabetes drugs?
LESS EFFECTIVE
MORE $$
Long term satiety unknown
Exenatide
Sitagliptin
Saxagliptin
Pramlintide
synthetic analog of human glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP-1)
Exenatide
(1st incretin mimetic)
Function of Exenatide
stimulates insulin secretion, lowers serum glucagon, slows gastric emptyping, increases satiety
Pros/Cons Effects of Exenatide
subq injection 2x/day before meals;
GI sx/ Weight Loss
For pts who fail with metformin/sulfonylurea
inhibitor of DPP-4 (not PPARs)
Sitagliptin
Saxagliptin
mechanism of Sitagliptin and Saxagliptin
oral hypoglycemics
inhibtor DPP-4 which digests GLP-1; increases GLP which stimulates insulin secretion
suppresses glucagon levels, slows gastric emptying
Recommendations for DPP-4 inhibitors
equal/less effective than Type 1 drugs
Add to metformin or thiazolidinedione
amylin analog
Pramlitntide
Mechanism of Pramlitnide
slows gastric emptying
increases satiety
suppresses post prandial plasma glucagon and hepatic glucose output
Pros/Cons Effects of Pramlintide
GI, anorexia, headache, weight loss
fxn: for pts who can't achieve glucose levels on other drugs
Long acting human insulin analog that gives flat peakless profile
detemir
glargine
ultralente (not basal)
Intermediate insulin
Lint on Window Pane
Lente
Isophane
Very Short Insulin
GAL
Glulisme
Aspart
Lispro
Major side effects of metformin
GI sx
Decreased B12 absorption
Metabolic Management of Type 2
tier 1 = older diabetic drugs
tier 2 = new antidiabetic drugs
initiall: lifestyle and metformin
INSULIN SECRETOGOGUES
sulfonylureas
meglitidines
D-Phenylalanine Derivative
increase insulin secretion
BIGUANIDES
increase peripheral glucose utilization
anti-hyperglycemic (NOT hypoglycemic)
METFORMIN
fxn of biguanide and major SE
dec. heaptic insulin resistance
dec glucose production by liver
lose weight
SE lactic acidosis
THIAZOLIDINEDIONES
inc peripheral insulin sensitivity
Examples of Thiazolidinediones
rosiglitazone
pioglitazone
rosig + metformin
(Glitz $$$)
Side Effects/Efficacy of Thiazolideiones
HEPATOTOXICITY! CARDIOTOXICITY
does NOT inc insulin releases
p450 metabolized
dec fasting plasma gluc [ ] but less than sulfonylurea or metformin $$$
Examples of Sulfonylureas
Class 1

Tolerance BUILDS!!!
1st class = tool belt
tolbutamide
chlorpropamide
tolazamide
acetohexamide
Examples of Sulfonylureas
Class 2

higher potency, less required NOT more efficacious
glyburide
glitzide
glimepride
GL ide drugs!!
Efficacy/fxn of sulfonylurea
stimulate insulin release from B cells
chronic therapy = dec glucagon levels
CI: liver/renal failure
hypoglycemic epidodes occur
MEGLITINIDE FXN
same primary action to sulfonylurea
but different structurally
fast and brief stim. of insulin secretion
reduce postprandial hyperglycemia
D PHENYLALANINE EX
Nateglinide
MEGLITINIDES EX
ex: Repaglinide
alpha glucosidase inhibitors
ex and fxn
acarbose
miglitol
fxn: reduce glucose absorption bc
competitive inhibitors of intestinal glucosidases
side effects of alpha glucosidase inhibitors
GI - gas, diarrhea, CI in pts with GI dx
How sulfonylurea work?
potentiate insulin release through binding to a B cell receptor associated with an ATP sensitive potassium channel
