    2. Objectives Review the epidemiology of diabetes Define IFG and IGT Discuss screening for DM Identify the goals of therapy for diabetes Describe the major metabolic defects in Type 2 Diabetes Review the MOA, pertinent kinetics, SE, and CI of each class Discuss new oral therapies available and in the pipeline

    3. Epidemiology 21 million people with diabetes in the US 5.2 million people don’t even know they have the disease 41 million people in the US have pre-diabetes

    4. “Pre-Diabetes” Patients with IFG and/or IGT are now referred to as having "pre-diabetes" Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG) = 100 mg/dL to < 126 mg/dL Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) 2-hr PG = 140 and < 200 mg/dL This glucose load is 75gmThis glucose load is 75gm

    5. Screening for DM Should be considered by health care providers at 3-year intervals beginning at age 45 Particularly in those with BMI > 25 kg/m2 Testing should be considered at a younger age or be carried out more frequently in individuals who are overweight and have one or more other risk factors

    6. Risk Factors for Type 2 DM Age > 45 years Overweight (BMI > 25 kg/m2) Family history of diabetes (i.e., parents or siblings with diabetes) Habitual physical inactivity Race/ethnicity (e.g., African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, Native Americans, Asian-Americans, and Pacific Islanders) Previously identified IFG or IGT History of GDM or delivery of a baby weighing >9 lbs Hypertension (140/90 mmHg in adults) HDL cholesterol < 35 mg/dl and/or a triglyceride level > 250 mg/dl Polycystic ovary syndrome History of cardiovascular disease

    7. Treatment Goals for the “Whole” Patient FPG 70-110 mg/dL HbA1c < 7% AACE < 6.5% BP < 130/80 mmHg LDL < 100 mg/dL HDL > 40 mg/dL (men) HDL > 50 mg/dL (women) TG < 150 mg/dL

    8. Therapies for Diabetes Approximately 90% of persons with diabetes require oral medications, insulin injections, or both Monotherapy with any of these agents is associated with a 0.5-2.0% reduction in HbA1C 10% of patients are able to control their DM with dietary modification10% of patients are able to control their DM with dietary modification

    9. Major Metabolic Defects in Type 2 Diabetes Peripheral insulin resistance in muscle and fat Decreased pancreatic insulin secretion Increased hepatic glucose output The endocrine characteristics of type 2 diabetes include peripheral insulin resistance in muscle and fat tissue, decreased pancreatic insulin secretion, and increased hepatic glucose output.The endocrine characteristics of type 2 diabetes include peripheral insulin resistance in muscle and fat tissue, decreased pancreatic insulin secretion, and increased hepatic glucose output.

    10. Oral Agents Sulfonylureas Meglitinides Biguanides Thiazolidinediones Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors 5 classes of agents - broken down into insulin sensitizers and insulin secretagogues; alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are the odd ball out5 classes of agents - broken down into insulin sensitizers and insulin secretagogues; alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are the odd ball out

Sulfonylureas First Generation Tolbutamide (Orinase®) Acetohexamide (Dymelor®) Tolazamide (Tolinase®) Chlorpropamide (Diabinese®) Second Generation Glyburide (Diabeta®, Micronase®) Micronized glyburide (Glynase®) Glipizide (Glucotrol®, Glucotrol XL®) Glimepiride (Amaryl®) Disadvantages of First Generation: not used much now because of side effects, specifically hypoglycemia and drug interactions **Although, you may see some used because of their inexpensive costDisadvantages of First Generation: not used much now because of side effects, specifically hypoglycemia and drug interactions **Although, you may see some used because of their inexpensive cost

    12. Sulfonylureas Insulin secretagogues MOA: Increases insulin release from the pancreas Maximum hypoglycemic effect between agents is similar Initial dosage may need to be adjusted for patients with hepatic or renal dysfunction Kinetics: absorption is rapid, fairly complete, and unaffected by food, except for glipizide, which is most effective when taken on an empty stomach Sulfonylureas decrease HbA1c by ~ 1-2% Glipizide is the only 2nd generation with an active metabolite, important to remember in pts with renal impairmentSulfonylureas decrease HbA1c by ~ 1-2% Glipizide is the only 2nd generation with an active metabolite, important to remember in pts with renal impairment
