MANAGEMENT OF T2DM
Overview of Diabetes Oral hypoglycemic agents Define various classes of medications Describe mechanisms of action Define indications/contraindications for use
Q & A
OBJECTIVES
CDC.gov/diabetes, 2014
29.1 million in US ( 9.3% of population)
Nearly 1/3 (27.8%) unaware that they have diabetes
7th leading cause of death in the US in 2010
More than 234,051 death certificates list diabetes as underlying cause in 2010
Cost of care $245 billion—2.3 x higher medical expenditures for people with DM
Increasing prevalence in children and adults
DIABETES – THE FACTS
Formerly Non-insulin Dependant Diabetes (NIDDM)

Increases insulin secretion in people with capacity to produce insulin, may also decrease the rate of hepatic glucose production, and increase insulin receptor sensitivity and increase the number of insulin receptors
SULFONYLUREAS
Lowers HbA1c 1.5%
Main Benefits Can be used as monotherapy or in combination with other oral agents (with the exception of glinides) or with insulin
Common adverse Hypoglycemia, weight gaineffects
Cautious Use Impaired renal and hepatic function, adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, elderly, malnourished
Contraindications Ketoacidosis
SULFONYLUREAS
Considerations: Lead to progressive decline in β-cell function
No protective effect against atherosclerotic cardiovascular complications
Within 3 years most patients require 2nd anti-diabetic medication

Binds with bile acids in the intestine thereby impeding their reabsorption. As the bile acid pool is depleted, the hepatic enzyme, cholesterol 7-alpha-hydroxylase is upregulated, which increases the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids. The mechanism of action for reducing blood glucose is unknown.

Glycemic targets & BG-lowering therapies must be individualized.
Diet, exercise, & education: foundation of any T2DM therapy program
Unless contraindicated, metformin = optimal 1st-line drug.
After metformin, data are limited. Combination therapy with 1-2 other oral / injectable agents is reasonable; minimize side effects.
KEY POINTS (ADA-EASD)DIABETES CARE, DIABETOLOGIA . 19 APRIL 201 2
Ultimately, many patients will require insulin therapy alone / in combination with other agents to maintain BG control.
All treatment decisions should be made in conjunction with the patient (focus on preferences, needs & values.)
Comprehensive CV risk reduction - a major focus of therapy.
