1

What do sulfanolyureas dp?

stimulates the secretion of insulin

2

What kind of patients take sulfanolureas (glyburide)?

patients that still have beta cell production in pancreas (T2)

3

What are sulfonylureas known to be?

the oldest group of oral medications for T2DM

4

What does a patient need to have with them at ALL times if they take glyburide?

carry a rapid acting carb (juice, sugar cube, etc.)

5

What is an effect of glyburide?

decreasing BP and managing postprandial hyperglycemia

6

When should a person take glyburide?

30 minutes before meals to prevent hypoglycemia

7

glyburide contraindications

sulfa allergy, severe renal/hepatic impairment, pregnant/lactating, pituitary/thyroid disorders.

8

What are biguanides?

the initial drug of choice for T2D

9

what is biguanide's prototype drug

metformin

10

Metformin is?

THE FIRST LINE FOR DM THERAPY

11

Does metformin bind to plasma proteins in the SI for circulation?

NO

12

what does metformin do?

decreased the production of glucose in the liver/intestinal absorption of glucose to increase insulin sensitivity = increased uptake of glucose

13

Metformin BBW

risk for lactic acidosis (so WITH HOLD DAY OF SURGERY)

14

When should we hold metformin?

if the patient has SEVERE KIDNEY DYSFUNCTION

15

What would you tell a patient taking metformin?

take with meals whole and discontinue if diagnosed with an MI

16

what is the prototype drug for alpha glucosid(ase) inhibitors?

acarbase

17

What does acarbose do?

delay digestion of carbs

18

are alpha glucosidase good by them selves?

NO they need to be combined with sulfonylurea to be effective

19

side effects of acarbose?

gas, bloating, diarrhea

20

Which type of patients should NOT be using acarbose?

any patient's with an intestinal disorder (ie. IBD, Celiac)

21

what is the prototype drug for thiazolidinediones?

rosiglitazone maleate

22

What does rosiglitazaone do?

decreases insulin resistance

23

how would you recognize a thiazolidinedione?

"-glitazone"

24

how long do glitazones take to work?

12 weeks

25

bbw for glitazones?

risk of congestive heart failure

26

glitazones are?

hepatotoxic

27

what is the prototype drugs for meglitinides?

repaglinidine

28

repaglinidine is similar to ______ due to similar_____, which is _______.

sulfonylureas; mechanisms of action; stimulate secretion of insulin

29

what is the prototype drug for SGLT2 inhibitors?

canagliflozin, empagliflozin

30

what does canagliflozin do?

inhibits renal SGLT-2 (blocking reabsorption of glucose in kidneys) and promotes excess glucose excretion in the urine (it makes ya go pee more). also protects the kidneys n heart.

31

when ya flo?

ya gotta go

32

for SGLT2 inhibitors, the higher the glucose, ______?

the better they work

33

what are some adverse effects of SGLT2 inhibitors?

balanitis, candida, vulvovaginal candidiasis. bc of the extra glucose in urine (ie more sugar) puts ya at more risk for infection since bacteria loveeee glucose

34

what is SGLT2 not recommended for?

pts with a GLR <45 mL/min

35

dd4-enzyme

inactivates incretins (BAD)

36

glp-1

stimulates insulin release and inhibits glucagon release (GOOD)

37

what is the prototype drug for dipepidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors?

sitagliptin

38

What is the mechanism of action for dipepidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (sitagliptin)?

decreases rate of inactivation of incretin hormones (GLP-1) to increase hormone levels and prolong activity

39

what is the prototype drug for glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1)?

exenatide

40

other drugs in GLP-1 drug class?

dulaglutide (trulicity), and semaglutide (wegovy)

41

BBW for dulagluticide

thyroid cancer and contraindicated in pts with a family history of endocrine neoplasia type 2

42

what is the bbw for amylin analogs?

pramlintide acetate

43

what does pramlinitide acetate do?

decreases gastric emptying and postprandial secretion leading to an increased sense of satiety

44

renal protection for diabetes

ACE/ARBS in pts who have proteinuria

45

lipid management for dm

statins

46

HYPOGLYCEMIC EFFECT

  • sulfonylureas (glyburide)
  • meglitinides (repaglinide)
  • amylin analogs (pramlintide acetate)
  • glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 - dulaglutide/semaglutide)

47

diabetic women regardless of T2 or gestational shld

always be on REGULAR insulin

48

don't give drugs to kids, unless T1, give

insulin

49

What kind of adjustment do some drugs need?

renal adjustment, all depends on renal function
