28
Q

Rx-Rx interaction with Repaglinide

A

Gemfibrozil, trimethoprim, simvastatin, clarithromycin–> all interfere with metabolism

29

MOA of Repaglinide

A

Increase insulin release from beta cells
Bind to SUR on ATP-sensitive beta cell K channel
**Requires functional beta cells

30
Q

Pioglitazone Metabolism

A

CYP2C/CYP3A4 hepatic metab

31
Q

AEs of Pioglitazone

A

***Fluid Retention, weight gain, decreased bone density, liver failure, increased risk of HF and bladder CA

32
Q

Pioglitazone MOA

A
  1. Blocks FFA release from adipose and
  2. Promotes glucose uptake/utilization in muscle leading to increase insulin sensitivity
  3. decrease hepatic glucose output from liver
33
Q

Exenatide MOA

A

GLP-1 receptor agonist

  1. Increase glucose-dependent insulin secretion
  2. slows gastric emptying/increase satiety to facilitate weight loss
  3. decrease post-prandial glucagon release
  4. decrease hepatic fat accumulation
  5. increase beta cell mass
34
Q

3 major AEs of Exenatide

A
  1. N/V/D
  2. Increased risk of hypoglycemia when given w/ insulin secretagogues
  3. Acute Pancreatitis
35
Q

A

Prolong endogenous GLP-1 activity
Increase glucose-mediated insulin
Decrease postprandial glucagon release

37
Q

A

True

42
Q
