Pharmacology of DM drugs

QuestionAnswer
The major characteristics of exogenous insulin preparations Degree of purity, concentration, species of origion, time course of action
Degree of purity of exogenous insulin The amount of non-insulin proteins or proinsulin (with C-protein), not a problem anymore (pure<1ppm non-insulin)
Concentration of exogenous insulin preparations Potency of insulin is measured in units. the US standard is 100Units per 1 mL. Highly concentrated insulin is 500Units/1mL
Species of origin of exogenous insulin Is no longer of question since recomninant DNA technology- Proinsulin is inserted in E.coli which produces human proinsulin and C-peptide is cleaved- called human insulin those converted or altered is called analogues
Time course of action of exogenous insulin Onset, peak, duration are the characteristics defining exogenous insulins
Rate limiting step of insulin activity is absorption
Absorption of exogenous insulin is affected by (BS- PARC) Blood flow, site of administration, additives, route of administration, concentration, pH
Physiochemical Properties of insulin Insulin naturally self-associates into hexamers, then dimers , then monomers. Additives such as zinc and protamine stablize the hexamer state
Rapid acting insulin analogues are designed to Mimic physiological post-prandial insulin secretion- Onset-15-30min, peak 1-3 hrs, duration 3-4 hours
Short acting insulin analogues PK Neutral pH buffer w/zinc allows onset 30-60minutes, peak in 2-4hrs, and duration 3-7 hrs
Intermediate acting insulin analogues PK They are neutral protamine hagedorn (phosphate buffer) with onset in 1-2 hrs, peak 6-10hrs, duration-16-20hrs
Long acting insulin analogues PK Glargine contains ph-4 and forms solid depot effect, detemir contains a FA the is highly protein bound- Onset 1-2hrs, Peak-None, Duration 20-24hrs
Combination insulins Humalog mix contains a crystalized lispro (intermediate) and lispro rapid acting others are NPH w/ short acting (regular)
Elimination of insulin is via Kidney via glomular capillaries and degraded by glomerular capillary cells and post glomerular cells
Side effects of insulin analogues Hypoglycemia, wt. gain, lipohypertrophy, lipoatrophy
Inhaled insulin PK Onset is 10-20min, peak 2 hrs, duration 6 hrs...absorption like rapid & duration like short acting
Contraindications of inhaled insulin Smokers (6months), Poorly controlled or unstable lung disease,
Side effects of inhaled insulin Cough, Decline of lung function, Bitter taste
Dosing of inhaled insulins 1mg blister=3units of insulin The 2mg=6units and 3mg=8units
Sulfonylurea MOA Stimulates the B-cells to release insulin (
Sulfonylurea ADME Abs-90%, Highly protein bound, metabolized via 2C9, renal excretion (hepatic for glipizide)
Duration of action for sulfonylureas Glipizide extended release has special capsule shell that will be found in patients stool
Sulfonylurea side effects Disulfram reaction with 1st generation, tolbutamide and chlorpropamide & ETOH
DI of sulfonylureas Protein binding-(warfarin, sulfa antibiotics, salycilates), Hepatic-(cimetidine, rifampin, MAOs), renal-(allopurinol, probenecid)
Short acting secretagologes MOA Stimulate the B-cells to release insulin at alternative site than Sulfonylureas
Short acting secretagologes are Repaglinide, Nateglinide
PK of Short acting secretagologes Absorption 30-60min, half-life is 1-1.5hr, duration 4 hours
Regaglinide metabolism Via 3A4 hepatic and excreted in the feces
Nateglinide metabolism Via 2C9 and 3A4 hepatic and primary renal excretion
DI of Regaglinide Inducers of 3A4(Grapefruit juice, gemfibrozil, azoles, macrolides, protease inhibtiors)
Biguanides MOA 3- Stope conversion of glycogen to glucose, increase peripheral glucose uptake, decrease GI absor of glucose
Metformin ADME GI absorption, duration of action 12 hr, renal elimination
DI of metformin Cimetidine, trimterene, trimethoprim, digoxin
SIde effects of metformin GI-nausea, diarrhea, metallic taste, weight loss, metabolic acidosis
Contraindications of metformin Scr>1.5 men or >1.4 women, lactic acidosis, liver impairment, CHF +diuretic, Chronic lung disease
TZD MOA Stimulates PPARy which regulates lipid and glucose metabolism or GLUT4 receptor uptake
TZD are active on increasing insulin sensitivity in muscle, liver, and fat. They enhanse glucose utilization and suppress hepatic and lipolysis
TZD non-glucose effects Increase HDL, vascular-decrease inflammation, decrease B-cell decline, move visceral to subcutaneous fat
Rosiglitazone is metabolized by 2C8 and excreted in feces
Poiglitazone is metabolized By 2C8 and 3A4 and excreted in the feces
Side effects of TZD edema, HA, weight gain, anemia
DI with TZD's Rosi=gemfibrizol and Pio-itraconazole
Alpha glucosidase inhibitors MOA Competively inhibit glucosidase in the GI brush boarder to decease glucose absorption
PK of alphaglucosidase inhibitors Acarbose metabolized in GI and excreted in feces, Migitol not metabolized and excreted in urine
DI of Alpha glucosidase inhibitors May decrease digoxin Bioavilability, digestive enzymes, and intestinal adsorbants
Pramlintide=Symlin MOA mimics endogenous amylin decreasing glucagon and delaying gastric emptying, and producing satiety- given SQ prior to meals
Side effects of pramlintide Hypoglycemia (with insulin) , N/V, loss of appetitie, HA
Pramlintide DI May decrease analgesic absorption
Byetta MOA synthetic GLP-1 from Glia monster acts on GLP-1 beta cell to decrease glucagon, increase insulin , sloq gastric emptying, improve satiety
Byetta PK Poor absorption (SQ), eliminated via renal
Side effects of byetta Nausea, weight loss, hypoglycemia (when given with sulfonlyureas)
DI of byetta May decrease absorption of analgesics, and antibiotics
Sitagliptin (Januva) MOA It is a DPP-4 inhibitor thus decreases endogenous breakdown of GLP1 causes decrease in glucagon, increase insulin secretion
Sitagliptin ADME Ok absorption, renal excretion must be dose adjusted CrCl>30 =50mg less than <30=25mg QD
SIde effects of sitagliptin Nausea, diarrhea, slight hypoglycemia
