  • Diabetes Treatment
    • Oral Hypo glycemic Agents
      • Sulfonylureas (SUs)
        • Gliclazide
        • Stimulates insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells
        • Risk of hypoglycemia
        • Weight gain
        • Can contribute to worsening of dementia
        • Access to BG monitoring
        • No CV benefits
      • DPP-4 Inhibitors
        • Alogliptin, Sitagliptin, Linagliptin, Saxagliptin
        • Inhibits DPP-4 enzyme that breaks down GLP-1. This increases exposure and increases insulin release
        • Neutral weight gain/loss
        • No CV benefits
      • SGLT2 Inhibitors
        • Sick day rules
          • Biguanides
            • Increases insulin sensitivity
            • 1st line after diet/exercise
            • Contra-indicated in GFR < 30ml/min
            • Weight reduction
            • CV benefits
        • Genital infections common
        • Inhibits reuptake of glucose in kidneys
        • Empagliflozin (Jardiance), Dapagliflozin (Forxiga), Canagliflozin (Invokana)
        • Weight loss
        • CV benefits
      • Biguanides
        • Increases insulin sensitivity
        • 1st line after diet/exercise
        • Contra-indicated in GFR < 30ml/min
        • Weight reduction
      • Thiazolidinediones
        • Increased risk of bladder cancer
        • Dose-related weight gain
        • Probable CV benefits but can cause fluid retention - increased when combined with insulin
        • Increased risk of fracture
        • Do not use in heart failure/history of, hepatic impairment, DKA
    • Injectable Hypoglycemic Agents
      • Insulin
        • Insulin for Type 1
          • BG and ketone monitoring required
          • Basal-bolus regime
          • Biphasic regime
          • Insulin pump therapy
          • All type 1 diabetics need insulin
          • Hypo glycaemia
          • Weight gain
        • Insulin for Type 2
          • Continue metformin to maintain glycaemic control
          • Reduce/stop SUs risk of hypoglycemia
          • Initiate with OD bedtime basal insulin
        • Basal
          • Biphasic Insulin
            • Bolus
              • Short-acting
                • 30-60 mins onset - Up to 9 hrs
                • Soluble (Humulin S, Actrapid)
              • Rapid-acting
                • Aspart (Fiasp, Novorapid)
                • Lispro (Humalog),
            • Mix of fast and slow acting insulin
            • Humulin M3 Humalog Mix NovoMix
          • Long-acting
            • Detemir (Levemir)
            • Glargine (Abasaglar, Lantus)
            • Degludec (Tresiba)
          • Intermediate-acting
            • Isophane (Humulin I)
            • Up to 24 hrs
        • Bolus

          • Rapid-acting
            • Aspart (Fiasp, Novorapid)
            • Lispro (Humalog),
      • GLP-1 Agonists
        • Stop DPP-4 inhibitors when initiating this
        • BMI >30kg/m2
        • Mimicks endogenous GLP-1 but is not broken down by DPP-4 enzyme, increasing exposure to receptor and insulin release
        • Weight loss
        • CV benefits (Liraglutide)
        • Semaglutide (Ozempic) Dulaglutide (Trulicity) Liraglutide (Saxenda, Victoza)
