24
Tends to have fewer side effects but are more predictable and expensive
2nd generation sulfonlyureas
25
3rd generation sulfonlyureas
Amaryllis
26
Main site of action for sulfonlyureas
Pancreas (stimulates beta cell production by pancreas)
27
Side effects of sulfonlyureas
Hypoglycemia and weight gain
28
Lowers A1c by 1-2% and stimulates insulin production
Sulfonlyureas
29
Meglitinides
Prandin (repaglinide) and starlix
30
Meglitinides main site if action
Pancreas (stimulates pancreas to produce more insulin)
31
Side effects of meglitinides
Hypoglycemia and weight gain
32
Onset more rapid than sulfonlyureas and duration shorter
Meglitinides
33
Take only with meals!
Meglitinides
34
Lowers A1c by 1-1.5% and targets pp glucose to mimic insulin secretion, must be taken 15- 20 min before each meal
Meglitinides
35
Alpha glucosidase inhibitor
Precose (acarbose) glyset (migitol)
36
Main site of action of alpha glucosidase inhibitors
Small intestine (slows digestion of starchy food in small intestine so absorption of sugar into blood is delayed helping prevent surge of it)
37
Side effects if alpha glucosidase inhibitors
Flatulence, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort
38
Thiazolidinediones
Actos (pioglitazone) and Avandia (rosiglitazone)
39
Main site of action for thiazolidibediones
Peripheral tissues (increases sensitivity of peripheral tissues to insulin, thus improving glucose control)
40
Side effects of thiazolidinediones
Weight gain (increase intravascular volume so may not be used in patients with CHF)
41
Lowers A1c 1-1.5%, insulin sensitizer, edema, may have connection to bladder cancer
TZDs (actis and Avandia)
42
What function must be monitored for TZDs?
Liver
43
DPP4
Januvia, onglyza, trajenta --DPP-4 inhibitor
44
Increases insulin made in pancreas and decreases glucose produced by liver
DPP4
45
Lowers A1c by 0.5-1.0%, increases glucose-dependent insulin release and suppresses glucagon secretion.
DPP4 inhibitor
46
Weight neutral, oral, nausea and pancreatitis reported
DPP4
47
Metabolized in liver and excreted thru kidney
DPP4
48
Bike acid sequestrant
Welch ok
49
Now indicated for treatment of type 2 diabetes, lowers A1c 0.5-1%, clean drug, rare side effects
Bike acid sequestrant
50
Also treats cholesterol, take 2 tabs x3 a day, constipation side effect
Bile acid sequestrant
51
GLP
Byetta, Victoza, pre filled injectable pens
52
Injectable med for type 2 but NOT and insulin, inject twice a day within 60 min of bfast and dinner
Byetta
53
Inject once daily
Victoza
54
Signals pancreas to make right amount of insulin after eating. Decreases glucose production by liver, reduces appetite
GLP - 1
55
Side effects of GLP-1
Nausea and vomiting, take within 1 hour of eating
56
Natural hormone released from small intestine, 1-1.5% A1c lowering, inhibits hepatic glucose production
GLP1- receptor agonist, Victoza
57
For type 1 and 2 who don't have good control with insulin
Smylin
58
Amylin mimetics
Smylin (pramlintide)
59
Hormone secreted by beta cells of pancreas which carry glucose from bloodstream into cells binding to receptors on the cell membrane allowing glucose to make energy
Insulin
60
Controls glucose in between meals and suppresses overnight hepatic glucose production, background insulin
Basal insulin
61
Controls post- prandial glucose spikes or correct hyperglycemia, covers amount of food eaten

62
Rapid acting insulin U-100
Humalog, novolog, apidra
63
Short acting insulin U-100
Regular
64
Intermediate acting insulin
NPH
65
Long acting insulin
Lantus and Levemir
66
Combination
Human 70/30, novolog mix 70/30, humalog mix 75/25, humalog mix 50/50
67
What can you not mix with other insulin?
Lantus and Levemir
68
Basal insulin
NPH and glargine (lantus) and detemir (Levemir) daily or BID
69
Prandial or Bolus insulin
Rapid acting insulin analogue or regular
70
Onset, peak, and duration of NPH (intermediate)
Onset: 1-3 hours Peak: 4-10 hours Duration: 10-18 hours (12 mostly)
71
Lantus and Levemir peak, onset and duration
Virtually peak less Onset: 1 hour Duration: 24 hours
72
Why don't you mix lantus and Levemir with other insulin?
They can crystallize
73
Regular (short acting) onset, peak, and duration
Onset: 30 min to 1 hour
74
What is being used more in insulin pump
U-500 R, 5X stronger than regular insulin
75
Onset, peak, and duration or rapid acting insulin
Onset: 10-15 min Peak: 1-2 hours Duration: 3-5 hours
76
Must be given no more then 15 min before eating but can be given immediately after meals
Rapid-acting
77
Human 70/30 and human 50/50 onset peak and duration
Onset: 30 min to 1 hour
78

Onset: 10-15 min Peak: 1-3 hours Duration: 10-16 hours
79
Novolog 70/30 onset peak and duration
Onset 10-20 min Peak 1-4 hours Duration 10-16 hours
80
Availability of insulin
All available in 10cc vials of U-100
81
Expiration of insulin
Good for 30 days once opened or until expiration date if never opened and refrigerated
82
What to teach
Insulin type, technique, response, storage, and complications
