Diabetes Mellitus• Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases
characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both
• Hyperglycemia, glycosuria, hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia
• Fasting plasma glucose >7.0 mmol/l (126mg/dL)• Two-hour plasma glucose ≥ 11.1 mM (200 mg/dL)• HbA1c ≥ 6.5%
• Multi-organ dysfunction syndrome
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 4
Global Burden• Nov 2014 – 347 million worldwide
• India – 65.1 million
• 7th leading cause of death in the world by the year 2030
• 90% - Type 2 DM
• 2012 – 1.5 million deaths

Types • Type 1 –
• Immune β-cell destruction or idiopathic, leading to absolute insulin deficiency
• Type 2 – • Insulin resistance with relative insulin deficiency or insulin
secretory defect with insulin resistance• Gestational Diabetes –
• Diabetes diagnosed in the second or third trimester of pregnancy that is not clearly overt diabetes
• Specific types of diabetes due to other causes – • Neonatal diabetes, maturity-onset diabetes of the young [MODY],
diseases of the exocrine pancreas (such as cystic fibrosis), and drug- or chemical-induced diabetes (such as in the treatment of HIV/AIDS or after organ transplantation

• First Generation – Tolbutamide, Chlorpropamide, Tolazamide
• Second Generation - Glibenclamide (Glyburide), Glipizide, Gliclazide, Glimepiride
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 20
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 21
Sulfonylureas: Pharmacology
• Food and hyperglycemia can reduce absorption• Largely bound to protein (90-99%)• Half-lives are short, hypoglycemic effects are evident
for 12-24 hours• Metabolism – Liver• Excretion – Urine • Require functioning pancreas [at least 30%]• Secondary Failure
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 22
Sulfonylureas: Pharmacology
• Adverse Reactions• Hypoglycemia• Weight gain (1-3 kg)• Nausea and vomiting• Cholestatic jaundice, agranulocytosis, aplastic and
hemolytic anemias• Generalized hypersensitivity reactions
• Contraindications• Pregnancy, Lactation• Renal and Hepatic Impairment
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 23
Sulfonylureas: Pharmacology
• Drug Interactions –
• Enhance SU action• Displace from protein binding: Phenylbutazone,
sulfinpyrazone, salicylates, sulfonamides• Inhibit metabolism/excretion: Cimetidine ketoconazole,
sulfonamides, warfarin, chloramphenicol, acute alcohol intake • Synergise with or prolong pharmacodynamic action:
Salicylates, propranolol, lithium, theophylline, alcohol
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 24
Sulfonylureas: Pharmacology
• Drug Interactions –
• Decrease SU action• Induce metabolism: Phenobarbitone, phenytoin,
rifampicin, chronic alcoholism.• Opposite action/suppress insulin release:
Corticosteroids, thiazides, furosemide, oral contraceptives.
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 25
First-Generation Sulfonylureas
• Tolbutamide• Its half-life is relatively short (6 hr.)• Is the safest sulfonylurea for use in elderly
• Chlorpropamide• Has a long half-life (32 hr.)• Contraindicated in elderly patients
• Tolazamide• Comparable to chlorpropamide in potency but shorter
acting (half life 7 hr.)
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 26
Second-Generation Sulfonylureas
• Glyburide• Has few adverse effects other than hypoglycemia.• Contraindicated in the presence of hepatic and renal
insufficiency
• Glipizide• Has the shortest half-life (3 hr.) • Taken 30 mins before meals
• Glimepiride• Has the lowest dose of any sulfonylurea (a single daily
dose of 1 mg)
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 27
Meglitinide
• Repaglinide• MOA – same as Sulfonylureas• Very fast onset of action, with a peak effect within
1 hour, the duration of action is 5–8 hr.• Metabolism – Liver, Kidney• Secondary Failure• Is indicated for use in controlling postprandial
glucose excursions• Hypoglycemia is less
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 28
D-phenylalanine derivatives• Nateglinide• May have a special role in the treatment of isolated
postprandial hyperglycemia• Dose titration is NOT required• Is ingested just prior to meals, absorbed within 20 min.
And peak concentration of <1 hour• Incidence of hypoglycemia - lowest• It is safe in individuals with very reduced renal function
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 29
Biguanides: Metformin
• Decrease hepatic glucose production through activation of the enzyme AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)
• Euglycemic conditions (no effect in non diabetics)• Does not stimulate pancreatic β cells• Inhibit Renal gluconeogenesis, slowing of glucose
absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, with increased glucose to lactate conversion by enterocytes, direct stimulation of glycolysis in tissues, increased glucose removal from blood, and reduction of plasma glucagon levels
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 30
Metformin (contd.)
• Insulin necessary for action• Metformin has a half-life of 1.5–3 hours, is not bound
to plasma proteins, is not metabolized, and is excreted by the kidneys as the active compound
• Insulin resistance syndrome• Insulin sparing – Weight loss• Side effects – anorexia, nausea-vomiting, abdominal
discomfort, diarrhea, • Contraindicated in alcoholism and anoxic states
(cardiopulmonary dysfunction) because of an increased risk of lactic acidosis
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 31

Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 33
Thiazolidinediones (Tzds)
• Tzds are ligands of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ)
• PPAR is part of the steroid and thyroid superfamily of nuclear receptors involved in lipid and glucose metabolism, and insulin signal transduction.
• Pioglitazone – Bladder Cancer – Ban and reinstatement
• Rosiglitazone – Banned (2010) - MI, CHF, stroke and death
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 34
Thiazolidinediones (Tzds)
• Reverse insulin resistance – Euglycemics
• Adipocyte differentiation, uptake of fat and glucose, hepatic gluconeogenesis decreased
• Absorbed within 2 hours of ingestion
• Metabolism – Liver (can be used in renal impairment)
• Side effects – Weight gain, edema, headache, myalgia and mild anaemia. Fractures in older females

Alpha Glucosidase Inhibitors
• Acarbose & Miglitol• Inhibits α-glucosidase - Reduce digestion and
absorption of polysaccharides and disaccharides.• Promotes release of GLP-1• Antihyperglycaemic• Taken before meals. Absorption – low• Side effects: flatulence, diarrhea, and abdominal pain
(undigested carbohydrate is fermented in colon and releases gas), mild to moderate elevations of hepatic transaminases
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 38
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 39
Bile Acid Sequestrants
• Colesevelam is used for type 2 DM.
• The mechanism of action involves:– An interruption of the enterohepatic circulation
(decrease in hepatic glucose output)– A decrease in farnesoid X receptor (FXR) activation.
• FXR is a nuclear receptor with multiple effects on cholesterol, glucose, and bile acid metabolism.
• Bile acids are natural ligands of the FXR.
• The drug may also impair glucose absorption.
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 40
Bile Acid Sequestrants (contd.)
• Three tablets twice a day before lunch and dinner or six tablets prior to the patient’s largest meal
• Absorption – in trace amounts. Distribution only in GI tract
• Excretion – Feces
• Side effects – constipation, dyspepsia, abdominal pain, and nausea.
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 41
Bromocriptine
• Dopamine (D2) agonist• Acts on the hypothalamic dopaminergic
control of the circadian rhythm of hormone (GH, prolactin, ACTH, etc.) release and reset it to reduce insulin resistance
• Taken with food in the morning within two hours of awakening
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 42
SGLT-2 Inhibitors
• Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter (SGLT2) is responsible for most renal glucose reabsorption in the kidney.
• SGLT2 Inhibitors reduce the absorption of glucose in the kidney, so reduce the blood sugar.
• Canagliflozin and Dapagliflozin
• The urine will test positive for glucose while on this medication.
• Effectiveness depends on kidney function.
• There is a risk of genital infections and urinary tract infections.

Newer Drugs
• GLP-1 Receptor Agonists• Exenatide - injected subcutaneously within 60 minutes
before a meal• Absorbed equally from arm, abdomen, or thigh• Plasma t1/2 - 2 hrs, duration of action of up to 10 hours• Excretion – Kidney
• Liraglutide – longer acting• Plasma t1/2 – 12 hrs, duration >24 hrs
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 46
Newer Drugs (contd.)
• Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors• Sitagliptin, saxagliptin, and linagliptin• Increase circulating levels of GLP-1 and GIP• Sitagliptan – Oral BA – 85%• Plasma t1/2 – 1-4 hrs, Duration >12 hrs• Metabolism – Liver, Excretion – Kidney• S/E - nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory infections,
headaches, and hypoglycemia, acute pancreatitis• Adjunctive therapy in type 2 diabetics who have failed
to achieve glycemic goals
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 47
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 48
Newer Drugs (contd.)
• Amylin Analog• Pramlintide – • Synthetic Antihyperglycemic drug• Suppresses glucagon release via undetermined
mechanisms, delays gastric emptying, and has central nervous system mediated anorectic effects• Injected subcutaneously prior to meals. • Plasma t1/2 of 50 minutes. • Metabolism and clearance is primarily by the kidney• Useful in both type 1 and 2 DM• S/E - hypoglycemia and gastrointestinal symptoms,
including nausea, vomiting, and anorexia
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 49
Management of DM
• Non-pharmacological• Diet• Exercise
• Pharmacological• Type 1 – Insulin• Type 2 – Oral, Insulin
Dr. Aditi M. Panditrao 50
Status of OHA
• Oral hypoglycemics are indicated only in type 2 diabetes, in addition to diet and exercise.
• They are most effective in patients with—• Age above 40 years at onset of disease.• Obesity at the time of presentation.• Duration of disease < 5 years when starting treatment.• Fasting blood sugar < 200 mg/dl.• Insulin requirement < 40 U/day.• No ketoacidosis or a history of it, or any other
