  • Front
  • Back
Very rapid acting insulin, having fastest onset and shortest duration of action
lispro (Humalog)
Rapid acting, crystalline zinc insulin used to reverse acute hyperglycemia
regular (Humalin R)
Long acting insulin
Ultralente (humulin U)
Ultra long acting insulin, has over a day duration of action
Glargine (Lantus)
receptor important in synthesis of glucose to glycogen in the liver
GLUT 2
receptor important in muscle and adipose tissue for glucose transport across muscles and TG storage by lipoprotein lipase activation
GLUT 4
Examples of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (AGI)
Acarbose, miglitol
MOA of AGI's
Act on intestine, delay absorption of glucose by decreasing breakdown of carbs to monos
SE of AGI's
Flatulence (do not use beano to tx), diarrhea, abdominal cramps
Alpha-glucosidase inhibitor associated with elevation of LFT's
acarbose
antidiabetic amino acid derivative
Nateglinide
MOA of nateglinide
Insulin secretagogue
Biguanide
metformin
Drugs available in combination with metformin
Glyburide, glipizide, and rosiglitazone
MOA of metformin
Decreases hepatic glucose production and intestinal glucose absorption; increase insulin sensitivity
Most important potential SE of metformin
lactic acidosis
Meglitinide
Repaglinide
MOA of repaglinide
Insulin release from pancreas; faster and shorter acting than sulfonylurea
First generation sulfonylurea
Chlorpropamide, tolbutamide, tolazamide, etc.
Second generation sulfonylurea
Glyburide, glipizide, glimepiride, etc.
MOA of sulfonylureas
Insulin release from pancreas by modifying K+ channels
Common SE of sulfonylureas, repaglinide, and nateglinide
hypoglycemia
Sulfonylurea NOT recommended for elderly because of very long half life
Chlorpropamide
Thiazolidinediones
Pioglitazone, Rosiglitazone, Troglitazone (withdrawn/d from market)
Reason troglitazone was withdrawn from market
hepatic toxicity
MOA of thiazolindinediones
Stimulate PPAR-gamma receptor to regulate CHO and lipid metabolism
SE of Thiazolindinediones
Edema, mild anemia; interaction with drugs that undergo CytP450 3A4 metabolism (induces P450)
Hyperglycemic agent that increases cAMP and results in glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, reverses hypoglycemia, also used to reverse severe beta-blocker overdose and smooth muscle relaxation
glucagon
