A

 No hypoglycemia
 No weight gain
 Well tolerated drugs.

53
Q

Disadvantages of DPP4 Inhibitors

  • ↓↓ The upper gastrointestinal enzymes that convert dietary starch and other
    complexes into simple sugar which can be absorbed.
  • Mild to moderate reduction in postprandial glucose.
56
Q

A

 no hypoglycemia
 no weight gain

57
Q

    efficacious in renal impairment.

Q

MOA of Insulin

A
65
Q

Introduction to insulin

A
  • Peptide hormone composed of 51 amino acids that is synthesized, packaged, and secreted in pancreatic beta cells.

A
  • Highly symptomatic with marked catabolic state
  • Newly diagnosed with very high glucose level
68
Q

SE of Insulin

A

Q

TTT of Hypoglycemia

A
71
Q

what causes Weight gain & edema in insulin therapy?

A

Due to lipogenesis and salt & water retention

72
Q

Injection site problems in insulin

A
  • Fat hypertrophy (“lipohypertrophy”) appears as soft lumps at the injection sites.
  • Fat atrophy (“lipoatrophy”) is a loss of fat under the skin’s surface.
  • Scarring of the fat (“lipodystrophy”) is caused when you inject too many times into the same site treated by frequent change of sites of injection
73
Q

Insulin allergy and hypersensitivity

A
  • Rare
  • Result from the insulin molecule itself, and also from protamine
  • Self-limited OR systemic reactions ( urticaria or anaphylaxis )
74
Q

TTT of Insulin allergy and hypersensitivity

A
  • Using a continuous subcutaneous pump infusion of insulin
  • Switching from human insulin to insulin analogues such as aspart or lispro.
75
Q

Def of Insulin Resistance

A
  • ↑↑ daily insulin requirements > 200 IU in absence of conditions associated with ↑↑ insulin demand (infection –pregnancy…)
76
Q

Cause of Insulin Resistance

A
  • Obesity: commonest cause for mild resistance & Antibodies against insulin preparations OR receptors
77
Q

Explain Somogyi Effect

A

(Pseudo-insulin resistance)

  • Nocturnal hypoglycemia (known by night mare & sweating of the patient & morning headache) ——> Increased hyperglycemic hormones —-> morning hyperglycemia
78
Q

Cause of Somogyi Effect

A

occurs due to high dose of night insulin or low amount of dinner
