QuestionAnswer
Humalog (Lispro) Rapid acting onset: <15 minutes Peak: .5-1.5 hrs Duration: 3-4 hrs
Novolog (Aspart) Rapid acting Onset: .5 hours Peak: 1-2 hrs Duration: 4 hrs
Apidra Rapid acting Onset: <.5 hrs Peak: .5-2.5 hrs Duration: <6 hrs
Regular insulin Short acting Onset: .5-1 hr Peak: 2-3 hrs Duration: 4-6 hrs
NPH Intermediate acting Onset 2-4 hours Peak 6-10 hours Duration 10-16 hours
Lente Intermediate acting Onset 3-4 hours Peak 6-12 hours Duration 12-18 hours
Insulin detemir (Levemir)‏ Long acting Increased length of absorption Peak none Duration up to 24 hours Higher doses have higher duration Used for basal insulin
Insulin glargine (Lantus)‏ Long acting Onset 4 hours Peak none Duration 24 hours Used for basal insulin
Insulin dosage for DM1 Average is 0.5-0.6U/Kg/day
Insulin dosage for DM2 Average is 0.7 – 2.5 units/kg/day
Sulfonylureas (MOA) Closes the K channel of the beta cells which opens the Ca channel, which releases more insulin
Acetohexamide (Dymelor) 1st generation sulfonylurea
Chlorpropamide (Diabenese) 1st generation sulfonylurea
Tolazamide (Tolinase) 1st generation sulfonylurea
Tolbutamide (Orinase) 1st generation sulfonylurea
Glimepiride (Amaryl) 2nd generation sulfonylurea
Glipizide (Glucotrol) 2nd generation sulfonylurea
Glyburide (DiaBeta, Micronase/Glyburide, micronized (Glynase) 2nd generation sulfonylurea
short-acting secretogogues (MOA) ups insulin secretion by binding near sulfonylurea receptor. Intensity of action dependent on glucose levels (less insulin produced if glucose is low). 1st line for non-obese, new diabetics
Nateglinide Short-acting secretogogue Rapidly absorbed after oral administration Metabolism by CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 Renally cleared Half-life 1.5 hours
Repaglinide Short-acting secretogogue Rapidly absorbed after oral administration Metabolism by CYP3A4 Excreted in bile Half-life 1 hour
Metformin Biguinide Reduces hepatic glucose production Reduces intestinal glucose absorption Increases insulin sensitization Does not increase insulin secretion May decrease LDL and increase HDL
Metformin considerations first line for new, obese DM2 pts can use in kids over 10 no liver metabolism, urine excretion 1/2 life- 6hrs watch kidney function- can build up and cause/worsen lactic acidosis (hold before and after IV dye exams)
THIAZOLIDINEDIONES Activation of PPAR-γ, Nuclear transcription factor important in fatty acid metabolism Reduces insulin resistance by sensitizing fat/muscle cells to insulin needs plenty of insulin for these drugs to work Not good for hepatic disease, but ok for renal
pioglitizone THIAZOLIDINEDIONE Not well absorbed orally 99% protein bound Metabolized by CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 to active and inactive metabolites Half-life of 3-7 hours Total pioglitazone 16-24 hours 15-30% renally excreted
rosiglitizone THIAZOLIDINEDIONE 99% bioavailable after oral ingestion Almost totally protein bound Metabolized by CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 to inactive metabolites Metabolites renally cleared Side effect is edema- can worsen CHF
ALPHA – GLUCOSIDASE INHIBITORS Competitive, reversible inhibitor of glucosidase in the small intestine Leads to slowed absorption of complex starches Decreased post – prandial blood glucose rise may take a few months to see full effect
acarbose ALPHA – GLUCOSIDASE INHIBITOR 0.5-2% absorbed Not protein bound Distribution half-life 3.7 hours Metabolized by intestinal bacteria and enzymes Excreted in bile
miglitol ALPHA – GLUCOSIDASE INHIBITOR 100% absorption at lower doses 50-60% at higher doses Not protein bound Elimination half-life 2 hours Not metabolized Excreted unchanged in the urine
Dipeptidyl Peptidase – 4 Inhibitor (Januvia) Inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4)‏ GLP and GLP-1 are metabolized rapidly by DPP-4 enzyme - these help reabsorb glucose Well absorbed orally Protein binding about 40% Minimal hepatic metabolism Renal excretion
Glucagon – Like Peptide (incretin) mimetic Exenatide (Byetta) Regulates glucose homeostasis Enhance glucose dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells Suppress glucagon secretion Promotes satiety Slows gastric emptying must be used with sulfonylurea or metformin
Amylin mimetic Pramlintide (Symlin) plays a role in glucose metablism postprandially Injection given before meals For use with insulin Do not mix with insulin

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
