DM II Progressive Care Approach (4 steps)
Step 1: nutrion, exercise, lifestyle
Step 2: oral agents (mono & early combo)
Step 3: Add basal insulin
Step 4: Intensify insulin
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs)
Rosiglitazone, Pioglitazone
*put on your glita to go to the PPARty
Insulin sensitizers making more favorable fat cells & raising adiponectin levels, shifts toward subcut fat from visceral fat
AE: Fluid retention (no CHF), Weight gain (largest complaint)
Metformin
biguanide drug
MOA: activates AMP kinase to alter glucose and lipid metabolism --> decr hepatic glucose, enhances insulin sensitivity (not as robust as TZDs)
AE: renal insufficiency --> lactic acidosis
α-glucosidase inhibitors
Acarbose, Miglitol
MOA: delay post-prandial glucose in blood
modest decrease in HbA1c
AE: flatulence, diarrhea, n/v
Secretagogues
MOA: increase insulin secretion by binding to K-ATP channel in β-cells
Sulfonylureas (long acting)
Meglitinides (Short acting)
Do not improve insulin resistance
Glimepride - reduces hypoG episodes, limits weight gain, no dose adjust for renal pts
AE: hypoG risk, weight gain, loss of β-cell responsiveness in 30% of pts
GLP-1 Agonist
Exenatide
Gila monster saliva (obviously)
binds GLP-1 receptors but resistant to DPP-4 degradation
Subcutaneous injection
MOA: stimulates insulin secretion, inhibits glucagon secretion, slows gastric emptying
AE: n/v, weight loss
DPP-4 Inhibitor
Sitagliptin
MOA: Increase GLP-1 and GIP levels stimulates insulin secretion, inhibits glucagon secretion, slows gastric emptying
AE: netural effect on body weight
Amylin Analog therapy
Pramlintide
MOA: inhibits glucagon secretion from α-cells, reduces hepatic glucose production, slows gastric emptying, post-prandial glucose control
Algorithm for glucose control
continue until HbA1c<7%
Lifestyle intervention
->metformin PO
-->other drugs one by one*
--->continue to increase doses
---->add intensive insulin

other drugs:
*basal insulin SC (most effective)
*sulfonylureas PO (least expensive)
*glitazone SC (no hypoglycemia)
