4 sulfonylureas
1. Glyburide 2. Glipizide 3. Gliclazide 4. Glimeperide
Where are the potent sulfonylureas metabolized and how are they excreted? (the 4 G's)
Metabolized in liver and excreted in urine
Which of the sulfonylureas should not be used in renal impairment?
Glyburide
Which of the sulfonylureas can now be used in pregnant women after 11 wks gestation?
Glyburide
MOA of sulfonylureas (start with how things normally work)
1. Normally glu gets metabolized in B-cell and ATP increases blocking of ATP/K channel 2. K unable to leave and there is a decrease conductance resulting in influx of Ca 3. Increase Ca causes insulin vesicles to fuse with membrane and secrete insulin 4. Sulfonylureas work by binding to ATP/K channel and blocking it. Thus like ATP, it will cause insulin vesicles to fuse with membrane and insulin to secrete
5 drug interaction mechanisms of sulfonylureas
1. Displacement from plasma binding proteins by other drugs 2. inhibition of hepatic metabolism of sulfonylureas by other drugs 3. Reduction of renal excretion of sulfonylureas 4. Drugs with intrinsic hypoglycemic activity 5. Drugs w/intrinsic hyperglycemic activity
MOA of meglinitides
same as sulfonylureas so can't be taken together
Which is a better regulator of post prandial, sulfonylureas or mglinitides?
Meglinitides
Name 2 meglinitides
1. repaglinide 2. nateglidide
Name a biguanide
Metformin
2 side effects that metformin DOES NOT cause
1. hypoglycemia 2. weight gain
General MOA of metformin
insulin sensitizer by 2 awys: 1. lowers blood sugar by improving resposne to insulin w/o increasing insulin secretion 2. Activates AMP-dependent protein kinase
2 SE of metformin
1. GI upset (diarrhea, nausea, anorexia) 2. Lactic acidosis (rare)
Who are contraindicated for biguanides (3)
liver and renal failure or conditions associated with hypotension
1st line drug for DM2
Metformin
There are 3 glitazones but 2 have been taken off market, there is one still available but what is the problem?
Pioglitazone (actos)- issue with bladder caner
2 oral alpha-glucosidase inhibitors
1. acarbose (precose 2. Miglitol (glyset)
MOA of oral alpha-glucosidase inhibtors
Inhibits glucosidases in gut, which normally the enzyme will convert carbs to free glucose. By blocking this breakdown of complex sugars to glucose, it stops the post prandial increase of glucose
Main SE of acarbose and why?
Flatuelence and diarrhea because sugars that aren't absorbed get into large intestine and bacteria interacts with it causing GI symptoms
Where is amylin made?
Made in Beta cells and packaged and release with insulin
There are 5 new tx for DM2, what are they?
1. human amylin analog AC137 (pramlintide) 2. GLP-1-incretin mimetics 3. DDPIV inhibitor 4. Bromocriptine (D2 agonist) 5. BARS (colesevalam)
MOA of AC137
slows gastic emptying and GI absorption of nutrients; also decrease glucagon secretion
2 GLP-1 -incretin mimetics
1. Exenatide 2. Liraglutide
6 MOA of GLP-1-incretin mimetics
1. Increase glu-dependent insulin secretion 2. enhance betacell function 3. slows gastric emptying 4. decrease appetite 5. inhibits glucagon secretion 6. decrease hepatic glucose output
How is GLP-1 approved for tx of DM2
In combination with metformin and/or sulfonylurea, no evidence that it can't be used as monotherapy
3 DPP IV inhibitors
1. sitagliptin phosphate 2. saxagliptin 3. linagliptin
What is DPP IV?
It is involved in the degradation of incretins like GLP-1
MOA of DPP IV inhibitors
increase GLP-1 by slowing degradation and increasing halflife
What is the function of Bromocriptane
Dopamine levels are low in diabetics during early mornings leading to increase SNS activity, to reverse this, bromocriptaine (D2 agonist) is given 2 hrs after waking to increase dopamine levels
MOA of colesevalam
indirectly reduce hepatic glu production by increaing secretion of GLP-1 and other incretins
