Pathogenesis of Type 2 Diabetes –
The Ominous Octet
Metformin
• 50-60% absorbed
• Half life is 6 hours
• 90% is eliminated in urine
• Side effects:
• GI-Abdominal discomfort, diarrhea and nausea. Less with XR form
• Metallic taste
• B12 deficiency
• Start slowly and increase dose weekly
• Contraindications:
• Hypoxic state eg HF, Respiratory failure, septicemia
• Renal and liver disease
Metformin
• Reduces Insulin Resistance
• Decreases mainly Fasting hyperglycemia but also
postprandially
• Requires some circulating Insulin for its action
• Does not cause weight gain andcan cause weight
loss
• Improves lipid profile
• Improves vascular risk factors such as PAI1,
fibrinogen and platelet aggregation
Metformin
• Decreases hepatic glucose production
• Increases insulin mediated glucose uptake
• Increases intestinal glucose utilization
• Decreases Fasting insulin
• Increase GLP1 secretion
Sulphonylurias
• HbA1c reduction- 1.5%
• UKPDS- HbA1c < 7%
• 50% at 3 years
• 34% at 6 years
• 24% at 9 years
• In Adopt ( Rosiglitazone, Glyburide, Metformin ),
secondary failure (FBG > 180 ) at 5 years
• Rosiglitazone-15%
• Metformin-21 %
• Glyburide-34%
• At 4 years, prportion of patients with A1c < 7 %
• Rosiglitazone 40%
• Metformin-34%
• Glyburide- 26%
Adverse effects
• Beta cell apoptosis increased by suphonyluria and
decreased by metformin
• Hypoglycemia
• More with glyburide
• Weight gaain
• With all
• Controversy
• CV
Glinides
• Half life 1.5 to 1.8 hours-Hence its postprandial
effect
• Weaker than sulphonylurias
• Less hypoglycemia than sulphonyluria
• Nateglinide less potent than repglinide
• Useful in elderly and with erratic time of meals
Sulphonylurias and Glinides
• November 2010 to December 2012
• 6042 participants.
• Adults with type 2 diabetes
• Baseline HbA1c 7.2%
• Elevated cardiovascular risk
• Mean age, 64.0 years
• median duration of diabetes, 6.3 years;
• 42%with macrovascular disease
• Follow-up was 6.3 years
• 5mg of linagliptin once daily (n = 3023) or 1 to 4mg of glimepiride

Thiazolidinediones
• PPARg activators
• Improve insulin sensitivity in muscle, fat and liver
• Decrease FFA
• Decrease Triglycerides by 15-20% and LDL by 10%
• Decrease liver fat
• Well tolerated
• No renal dosing needed
• Lowering of BG peaks at 10-14 weeks
• Durability is better than Sus or Metformin
• ? Cardiovascular benefit
Down side of TZDs
• Weight gain
• Fluid retention
• Heart failure
• Osteoporosis
• ? Cancer

A Glucosidase Inhibitors
• Post prandial glucose reduction of 2 mmol and A1c
reduction of 0.6-0.7 % is expected.
• Less effective than all antidiabetic agents ( HbA1c of 0.2 %
difference )
• Decreases PP Triglycerides but no effect on LDL
• Minimal or no weight changes
• Very safe
• Abdominal distension, flatulence and diarrhea are frequent
side effects- 50 %
• Discontinuation rate of 25%
• Pneumatosis cystiodes Intestinalis
• Concurrent administration of Anti acids or bile acids resins
reduce the effectiveness of aGI
• Contraindicated in patients with malabsorption,
inflammatory bow disease and colonic ulceration

Incretin Effect is Impaired in Type 2 Diabetes
• Secretion of GLP-1 impaired
• β-cell sensitivity to GLP-1 decreased
• Secretion of GIP normal (or slightly impaired)
• Effect of GIP abolished or grossly impaired
• Inhibition of glucagon is impaired
• The defect is secondary to diabetes
• The loss occurs at even slight hyperglycaemia

SGLT2Is lowers HbA1c with the additional benefits of
weight loss and blood pressure reduction1
Glycaemic control
SGLT2Is:1
• Acts independently of
insulin mechanisms to
reduce HbA1c via the
kidney
• Works regardless of
β-cell function
• Has a low propensity
for hypoglycaemia
Weight loss
• Urinary excretion of
~70 g glucose/day with
dapagliflozin
corresponds to loss of
280 Kcal/day*1
(1 g glucose = ~4 Kcal)
• 1 lb (0.45 kg) of body
fat equates to ~3500

Weight Loss with Dapa on Top of Metformin over 4 years
Dapagliflozin is not indicated for the management of obesity.2 Weight change was a secondary endpoint in clinical trials.2,3
A Phase III, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, parallel-group, 52-week, glipizide-controlled, non-inferiority study with a double-blind extension to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin 10 mg + metformin (1500–2000 mg/day) versus glipizide + metformin (1500–2000 mg/day) in patients with inadequate glycaemic control
(HbA1c >6.5% and ≤10%) on metformin alone. Data are adjusted mean change from baseline derived from a longitudinal repeated-measures mixed model.
