  • Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus
    TREATMENT OF DIABETES MELLITUS DIABETES is a condition that affects how the body makes energy from food. Food is broken down into sugar (glucose) in the body and released into the blood. When the blood sugar level rises after a meal, insulin responds to let the sugar into the cells to be used as energy. In diabetes, the body either does not make enough insulin or it stops responding to insulin as well as it should. This results in sugar staying in the blood and leads to serious health problems over time. DIAGNOSIS OF DIABETES1 • A1C Test: Lab test measuring average blood sugar over past two to three months • Fasting Blood Sugar Test: Lab test measuring blood sugar after eight hours of no food or drink • Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): Measures blood sugar before and two hours after drinking a specific sugary liquid • Random Blood Sugar Test: Measures blood sugar at a moment in time, without any kind of preparation (like fasting) FASTING BLOOD ORAL GLUCOSE TOLERANCE RANDOM BLOOD RESULT A1C TEST SUGAR TEST TEST SUGAR TEST Diabetes ≥ 6.5% ≥126 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL ≥ 200 mg/dL Prediabetes 5.7 – 6.4% 100 – 125 mg/dL 140 – 199 mg/dL N/A Normal < 5.7% ≤99 mg/dL < 140 mg/dL N/A NON-DRUG TREATMENTS2 THERAPY COST WHAT TO EXPECT Diet (Mediterranean diet) and exercise (30 minutes a day, five days a week of moderate- Weight loss $-$$ intensity exercise); 7% weight loss decreases risk of diabetes3 Psychological intervention $$-$$$ Psychotherapy may reduce diabetic distress and improve glycemic control4,5 nationalcooperativerx.com PRESCRIPTION TREATMENTS

After pre- formulation studies fast dissolving tablets were prepared by direct compression method; which shows instant drug release and % CDR of glimepiride fast dissolving tablet was found to be 70.81%. polymer plug have lag time 2.30 hr, chitosan coated miglitol beads shows sustained release upto 81.66% .this system is evaluated using different physicochemical parameters and in-vitro studies. Result suggests that the system can be applicable for diabetes treatment. Key words: Pulsatile, microbeads, sustained release, miglitol, glimepiride. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Oral controlled drug delivery systems represent the most popular form of controlled drug delivery system which release the drug with constant or variable release rates.[1] Dose of drug, reduced dosage frequency, avoidance of side effects, and improved patient compliance. However, there are certain conditions for which such a release pattern is not suitable. These conditions demand release of drug after a lag time. In other words, it is required that the drug should not be released at all during the initial phase of dosage form administration.

  • Effect of the Α-Glucosidase Inhibitor Miglitol on the Glucose Profile in Japanese Type 2 Diabetic Patients Receiving Multiple Daily Insulin Injections
    Endocrine Journal 2012, 59 (4), 345-352 ORIGINAL Effect of the α-glucosidase inhibitor miglitol on the glucose profile in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients receiving multiple daily insulin injections Hiroyuki Kato, Akio Ohta, Suzuko Kobayashi, Satoshi Ishii, Yukiyoshi Sada, Hidetoshi Kobayashi, Shintaro Ohmori, Akihiko Kondo, Takuyuki Katabami, Junro Fuse, Hisashi Fukuda, Yoshio Nagai and Yasushi Tanaka Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Metabolism and Endocrinology, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Kawasaki 216-8511, Japan Abstract. Strict postprandial glycemic control may have a preventive effect on atherogenesis in patients with type 2 diabetes. The α-glucosidase inhibitor (α-GI) miglitol is useful for controlling the early postprandial increase of glucose, but the combined effect of miglitol and multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) on glucose excursion has not been evaluated. First, we retrospectively compared the daily glucose profile, evaluated by self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) at nine times on the day before discharge from hospital, between type 2 diabetic patients receiving MDI (n=81) or MDI plus miglitol at 150 mg daily (n=24). Second, we prospectively examined the effect of adding miglitol to MDI on the daily glucose profile (SMBG) in 19 other type 2 diabetic patients. Although the daily insulin dosage and the glucose level before meals did not differ between the two groups, the 1-h postprandial glucose level after each meal, 2-h glucose level after lunch and dinner, mean and standard deviation of glucose, and amplitude of glucose excursion were significantly lower or smaller in the MDI plus miglitol group than in the MDI group.

  • Steglujan (Ertugliflozin/Sitagliptin), Segluromet
    Steglatro™ (ertugliflozin), Steglujan™ (ertugliflozin/sitagliptin), Segluromet™ (ertugliflozin/metformin) – New drug approval • On December 19, 2017, the FDA approved Merck’s Steglatro (ertugliflozin), Steglujan (ertugliflozin/sitagliptin), and Segluromet (ertugliflozin/metformin) as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). — Steglujan is indicated when treatment with both ertugliflozin and sitagliptin is appropriate. — Segluromet is indicated when patients are not adequately controlled on a regimen containing ertugliflozin or metformin, or in patients who are already treated with both ertugliflozin and metformin. — These drugs are not recommended in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. — Steglujan has not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis. It is unknown whether patients with a history of pancreatitis are at increased risk for the development of pancreatitis while using Steglujan. • Ertugliflozin is the fourth sodium-glucose co-transoporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor approved by the FDA. Other marketed SGLT2 inhibitors include Jardiance® (empagliflozin), Farxiga® (dapagliflozin), and Invokana® (canagliflozin). • The efficacy and safety of ertugliflozin were evaluated in multiple clinical studies involving patients with T2DM. Ertugliflozin was studied as monotherapy and in combination with metformin and/or a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. Ertugliflozin was also studied in combination with other antidiabetic medications, including insulin and a sulfonylurea, and in T2DM patients with moderate renal impairment. — In patients with T2DM, treatment with ertugliflozin, ertugliflozin + sitagliptin, and ertugliflozin + metformin reduced hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) vs. placebo or the active comparator. — In patients with T2DM and moderate renal impairment, treatment with ertugliflozin did not result in a reduction in HbA1c vs.

Purpose for Class Update: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of semaglutide and ertugliflozin (and combinations) which were recently approved for blood glucose lowering in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). High quality new evidence published since the last review will also be presented. Research Questions: 1. In patients with T2DM, is there any new comparative evidence for non-insulin antidiabetic therapies based on surrogate efficacy outcomes (e.g., hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]) and long-term clinically meaningful effectiveness outcomes (e.g., microvascular outcomes, macrovascular outcomes and mortality)? 2. In patients with T2DM, is there any new comparative evidence for non-insulin diabetes treatments based on harms outcomes (e.g., severe hypoglycemia, heart failure, diabetic ketoacidosis, pancreatitis, etc.)? 3. Are there subpopulations of patients with T2DM for which specific therapies may be more effective or associated with less harm? 4. What are the efficacy and harms evidence for the two new non-insulin diabetes treatments, ertugliflozin and semaglutide? Conclusions: A Drug Effectiveness Review Project (DERP) update on newer diabetes therapies, three new guidelines/standards, one new randomized controlled trial and two new drug reviews were reviewed for this class update.
