1 Overview of Diabetes Medications Marie Frazzitta DNP, FNP c, CDE, MBA Senior Director of Disease Management North Shore LIJ Health Systems Normal Glucose Metabolism Insulin is produced by beta cells in the pancreas Insulin binds to its receptor on the target cell to allow for glucose entry into the cells Glucose Regulation Insulin Hyperglycemia Normal Range Hypoglycemia Glucagon Diabetes Educational Services 1

2 Diabetes is a metabolic disease In which the body can not make insulin Beta Cell Failure Type 1 Diabetes Is unable to utilize the insulin it makes Insulin Resistance Type 2 Diabetes Or both Beta Cell Dysfunction and Insulin Resistance Type 2 Diabetes Diabetes Types Key characteristics of type 1, LADA, and type 2 Type 1 LADA Type 2 Typical age of onset Youth or Adult Adult Youth or Adult Progression to insulin dependence Immediate Latent (months/years) Slow Presence of autoantibodies Yes Yes No Insulin dependence Yes/ at diagnosis Yes Over time, if at all Insulin resistance No Possible Yes Medications Used for Diabetes Medication Class Biguanide Sulfonylurea 2nd Gen Glipizide, Meglinide Thiazolidinedione α glucosidase inhibitor SGLT2 inhibitor DPP 4 Inhibitor GLP 1 agonist Amylin mimetic Insulin Metformin Medications Glyburide, Glimepiride Repaglinide, Nateglinide Pioglitazone, Rosiglitazone Acarbose, Miglitol Canagliflozin, Dapagliflozin, Empagliflozin Sitagliptin, Saxagliptin, Linagliptin, Alogliptin Exenatide, Liraglutide Pramlintide Various 2
