|
|
know the insulin therapy for DM
|
|
|
when should short acting insulin be given?
|
30 minutes before a meal
|
|
what is amylin?
|
Amylin is a hormone that is co-secreted w/ insulin from the cells of the pancreas
|
|
what is amylin release in DM 1 & 2?
|
w/ type II, we still have working of cells so we still have release of amylin but we don’t get that spike that we get in a normal person.
In type I, there is no release of amylin |
|
how can amylin work in treatment of DM? what is the SE?
|
So amylin would be a good treatment for type I DM or type II DM that requires insulin.
What amylin does when it is released w/ insulin is it reduces our emptying gastric time so we don’t empty the stomach as quickly. So glucagon is not released, it makes us feel full. The side effect of a slower emptying is nausea & it can also cause hypoglycemia. So it’s recommended that those who start on should decrease the rapid acting insulin or mealtime insulin by 50% |
|
What is synthetic analog of amylin?
|
symlin
|
|
A patient with Type 1 DM is found to have a high blood glucose during an office visit. Which of the following insulin preparations could be administered in the office to bring the blood glucose down in a timely manner?
A.Insulin detemir (Levemir) B.Insulin glargine (Lantus) C.Insulin lispro (Humalog) D.NPH insulin (Humulin or Novolin R) |
C is the correct answer
|
|
What is the effect of sulfonylureas on A1C?
|
reduces it by 1-2%
|
|
What are the 3 sulfonylureas covered in lecture?
|
Glimepiride, glipizide, glyburide,
|
|
This drug is given for newly diagnosed type 2 DM?
|
metformin
|
|
This drug could be considered for pre-diabetes?
|
Metformin
|
|
what SCr levels should not be given metformin?
|
SCr > 1.5 males; > 1.4 females
|
|
How are glinides different from sulfonyureas?
|
They have faster onset & shorter duration of action. They are dosed before a meal so if u skip a meal, u skip the dose whereas w/ sulfonylureas since they are long acting, if u skip a meal, a person will be hypoglycemic at the end of the day
|
|
MOA of glucosidase inhibitors?
|
Inhibit breakdown of complex CHO & decrease postprandial glucose
|
|
This drug should not be given to those w/ heart failure?

|
Pioglitazone & rosiglitazone
|
|
Adverse effects of thiazolidnediones?
|
Fluid retention, edema, bone fractures & cardiac risk
|
|
How do incretin hormones work?
|
Increase postprandial insulin & decrease postprandial glucagon. They also delay gastric emptying & enhance satiety
|
|
Incretin mimetics are aka what?
|
GLP-1 agonists
|
|
What are the 2 GLP-1 agonists?
|
GLP-1 agonists
Exenatide & liraglutide |
|
What are the adverse effects of GLP-1 agonists?
|
Nausea & vomiting, pancreatitis, & Ab can develop against them
|
|
What are the DPP-4 inhibitors?
|
Sitaglipitin & saxagliptin
|
|
MOA of DPP-4 inhibitors?

|
Nasopharyngitis, headache
|
|
Too much glucose can lead to what 2 things?
|
DKA & hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome (HHNS)
|
|
