Metformin
› Prevalence
– Affects 24 million people in the United States
› Pathophysiology
– Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 involves insulin resistance and elevated
glucose production by the liver.
› Blood glucose levels are elevated which triggers the pancreas to release insulin
› Insulin is released and is unable to attach to the cells where the sugar is
circulating
› This causes the patient to have an elevated blood glucose levels.
› Over time the pancreas gets tired of making insulin and eventually wears out
resulting in a diagnosis of diabetes type 2. (2)
Pathophysiological Condition Treated
› Classified as a biguanide
› Drug of choice for diabetes type 2
– Does not cause hypoglycemia
– Works by inhibiting the glucose production in the liver and decreases
the patient’s resistance to insulin throughout the body
– Allows insulin to attach to the cells causing a decrease in blood sugar
levels
› Can be used alone or in combination with other oral
medications or insulin. (2)
Intended Drug Response
› Many possible drug-to-drug interactions with metformin
– Can range from minor to severe
– Severe reaction can occur with:
› Gatifloxacin
› Radiographic contrast agents
› Dofetilide
› Ranolazine
› Topiramate (3)
Potential Interactions
› Metformin is cautioned in:
– Renal issues/insufficiency
– Cardiac disease
– Thyroid disorders
– Pregnancy/breast-feeding
– Gastrointestinal disorders
– Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities
› Metformin is contraindicated in:
– Diabetic ketoacidosis
– Metabolic acidosis
– Radiographic contrast administration
– Lactic acidosis
– Renal failure (3)
Adverse Drug Reaction
› The most common side effect: gastrointestinal upset
› Other side effects include:
– Chest pain
– Elevated hepatic enzymes
– Hepatitis
– Hypoglycemia
– Lactic acidosis
– Vitamin B12 deficiency
– Nausea/vomiting
– Weight loss
– Infection(3)
Side Effects
› Oral Medication
› Supplied in a regular-release form, oral suspension, and extended-
release form
– Doses range from 500mg-2000mg
› Absorbed through the GI tissue
› Excreted through the kidneys
› Is NOT metabolized by the liver
› Important to monitor HbA1c and kidney function
› Only special consideration is in the elderly
– Due to decreased renal function as people age
› Half-life: 6 hours in plasma and 17 hours in the blood system (3)
Pharmacokinetics
› Does not bind to the hepatic or plasma proteins in the
patient’s body
› Competes with other positively charged ions to get excreted
by the kidneys
› If unable to eliminate through a pathway in the kidneys,
medication remains in circulation in the kidneys which is
where damage can occur.(5)
Drug Binding Issues
› Working together as a team
› Improving patient outcomes through communication and
patient advocacy
› Collaborating as a healthcare team for the common good of
the patient
Improving Communication
› Educating patients on disease process and ways to prevent
exacerbations
› Collaborating with physicians, advanced practice nurses,
pharmacists, and other members of the healthcare team.
› Advocating for the patient and promoting a healthy lifestyle.

Metformin PowerPoint

  • 2. › Prevalence – Affects 24 million people in the United States › Pathophysiology – Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 involves insulin resistance and elevated glucose production by the liver. › Blood glucose levels are elevated which triggers the pancreas to release insulin › Insulin is released and is unable to attach to the cells where the sugar is circulating › This causes the patient to have an elevated blood glucose levels. › Over time the pancreas gets tired of making insulin and eventually wears out resulting in a diagnosis of diabetes type 2. (2) Pathophysiological Condition Treated
  • 3. › Classified as a biguanide › Drug of choice for diabetes type 2 – Does not cause hypoglycemia – Works by inhibiting the glucose production in the liver and decreases the patient’s resistance to insulin throughout the body – Allows insulin to attach to the cells causing a decrease in blood sugar levels › Can be used alone or in combination with other oral medications or insulin. (2) Intended Drug Response
  • 4. › Many possible drug-to-drug interactions with metformin – Can range from minor to severe – Severe reaction can occur with: › Gatifloxacin › Radiographic contrast agents › Dofetilide › Ranolazine › Topiramate (3) Potential Interactions
  • 5. › Metformin is cautioned in: – Renal issues/insufficiency – Cardiac disease – Thyroid disorders – Pregnancy/breast-feeding – Gastrointestinal disorders – Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities › Metformin is contraindicated in: – Diabetic ketoacidosis – Metabolic acidosis – Radiographic contrast administration – Lactic acidosis – Renal failure (3) Adverse Drug Reaction
  • 6. › The most common side effect: gastrointestinal upset › Other side effects include: – Chest pain – Elevated hepatic enzymes – Hepatitis – Hypoglycemia – Lactic acidosis – Vitamin B12 deficiency – Nausea/vomiting – Weight loss – Infection(3) Side Effects
  • 7. › Oral Medication › Supplied in a regular-release form, oral suspension, and extended- release form – Doses range from 500mg-2000mg › Absorbed through the GI tissue › Excreted through the kidneys › Is NOT metabolized by the liver › Important to monitor HbA1c and kidney function › Only special consideration is in the elderly – Due to decreased renal function as people age › Half-life: 6 hours in plasma and 17 hours in the blood system (3) Pharmacokinetics
  • 8. › Does not bind to the hepatic or plasma proteins in the patient’s body › Competes with other positively charged ions to get excreted by the kidneys › If unable to eliminate through a pathway in the kidneys, medication remains in circulation in the kidneys which is where damage can occur.(5) Drug Binding Issues
  • 9. › Working together as a team › Improving patient outcomes through communication and patient advocacy › Collaborating as a healthcare team for the common good of the patient Improving Communication
  • 10. › Educating patients on disease process and ways to prevent exacerbations › Collaborating with physicians, advanced practice nurses, pharmacists, and other members of the healthcare team. › Advocating for the patient and promoting a healthy lifestyle. Application to Practice
