This class of drug enhance insulin secretion by blocking ATP-sensitive K+ channels in the cell membranes of pancreatic B-cells
sulfonylureas
This class of drug enhance insulin secretion by binding to a receptor adjacent to the binding site of sulfonylureas thus blocking ATP-sensitive K+ channels in the cell membranes of pancreatic B-cells
glitinides
This class of drug inhibits gluconeogenisis, glycolysis, and enhance insulin sensitivity in muscle and fat
biguanides
This class of drug increase insulin sensitivity by stimulating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma thus increasing glucose transporter expression
thiazolinediones
This class of drug inhibits alpha glucosidase
alpha glucosidase inhibitors
This class of drug inhibits DPP-4 thus inhibiting the degradation of endogenous incretins.
