Due to pancreatic islet B cell destruction by an autoimmune process
these patients are prone to ketoacidosis
Children and young adults with a peak incidence before school age and again at around puberty.
Type 1 DM
Circulating insulin is virtually absent
plasma glucagon is elevated
and the pancreatic B cells fail to respond to all insulinogenic stimuli.
Type 1 DM
The more prevalent form and results from insulin resistance with a defect in compensatory insulin secretion
over 40 years of age and obese
Ketonuria and weight loss generally are uncommon at time of diagnosis.
Type II DM
Ketonemia
ketonuria
or
both may be present in what type of DM?
Type II DM
Primary mechanism is to stimulate insulin release from pancreatic B cells
What drugs?
What type of DM do these tx?
Sulfonylureas

Nm Them?
glyburide
glipizide
glimepiride

Type II DM.
Major adverse effect is causing prolonged hypoglycemia

Contraindications w severe
-liver impairment
-kidney impairment
-Weight Gain
Sulfonylureas

Nm Rx-s
glyburide
glipizide
glimepiride
Structurally similar to glyburide but lacks the sulfonic acid-urea moiety
Undergoes complete metabolism in the liver to inactive biliary products
giving it a plasma half-life of less than 1 hour
Less hypoglycemia then with glipizide
Insulin secretagogues

Repaglinide
Nateglinide
Primary action is on the liver reducing hepatic gluconeogenesis
Particularly good for those type 2 pts that are obese and are not responding to sulfonylureas.
Metformin
Tends to improve fasting and postprandial hyperglycemia in obese pts without weight gain associated with sulfonylureas and insulin
Hypoglycemia does not occur
Metformin
Contraindications:
diabetics with serum creatinine of 1.5 mg/dl or higher
hepatic insufficiency
alcoholism
or
propensity to develop tissue hypoxia
Not for type 1
Metformin
Gastrointestinal symptoms (anorexia
nausea
vomiting
abdominal discomfort
diarrhea)
which occur in up to 20% of patients
These effects are dose-related
tend to occur at onset of therapy
and often are transient
Adverse affects of metformin
-Sensitize peripheral tissues to insulin

-result in lower doses of insulin needed

can lower
-cholesterol
-triglycerides
-Improvement of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Thiazolidinedione
Nm Rx-s ?

The Representative drugs are:

~MOA
~Results in?
~Benefits Are:
Rosiglitazone
Pioglitazone


-Sensitize peripheral tissues to insulin

-result in lower doses of insulin

can lower
-cholesterol
-triglycerides
-Improvement of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Safety concerns and troublesome side effects limit their use
May increase risk of MI
or
Angina
Decrease in bone density
Anemia
Weight gain in combo with sulfonylurea
Caution in pts with liver disease.
Thiazolidinedione
(“Glitazone”)

Rosiglitazone

Pioglitazone
Inhibit the alpha-glucosidase enzymes in the gut that digest dietary starch and sucrose
Lower postprandial glycemic excursion
Flatulence 20-30% - by 3 years 60% had discontinued drug due to this.
Alpha-Glucosidase Inhibitors

Acarbose

Miglitol
Gut hormone that is released on glucose ingestion that amplifies insulin release.
Glucagon-like-peptide (GLP)
GLP-1 receptor agonist
Exenatide

Class?

isolated from the saliva of
(an incretin)

the Gila Monster
When this drug is given to patients with type 2 diabetes
by subcutaneous injection twice daily

It lowers blood glucose and hba1c levels

Appears to have the same effects as GLP-1 on
-Glucagon suppression and gastric emptying.
Exenatide

Class?

When this drug is given to patients with type ? DM
Incretin
-Type 2...
-....It lowers blood glucose and hba1c levels

Same effect as GLP-1 on
-Glucagon suppression
-Gastric emptying.
Advantages include weight loss

Adverse effects are:

-nausea
-pancreatitis
-delay of gastric emptying
Incretins (exanatide)


-Advantages include:

-A/E?
3ct
~weight loss

-nausea
-pancreatitis
-delay of gastric emptying
~Which incretin causes weight loss?

~Which increases incidence of URI?
-Exenatide

-Sitagliptin
Given subcutaneously
it delays gastric emptying
suppresses glucagon secretion
and decreases appetite
It is approved for use in both types of DM

Short-acting or premixed insulin doses be reduced by 50% when the drug is started.
