This document summarizes different classes of anti-diabetic medications, including their mechanisms of action and examples. It discusses insulin, insulin sensitizers like biguanides and thiazolidinediones, secretagogues such as sulfonylureas and meglitinides, as well as alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, incretin mimetics, and other natural substances. The selection of anti-diabetic drugs depends on the type of diabetes, individual factors, and whether diet/exercise modifications sufficiently control blood glucose levels. Lifestyle changes are usually the first approach for type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes mellitus is a condition where the body cannot properly use glucose from food for energy due to a lack of or issues with insulin. There are two main types - type 1 occurs when the pancreas cannot produce insulin and type 2 occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or the insulin does not work properly. Management focuses on controlling blood sugar levels through diet, exercise, medication like insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents, and monitoring to prevent complications. Nursing care involves education on nutrition, medication administration, monitoring blood sugar, foot care, and supporting lifestyle changes.
This document provides information about insulin and diabetes mellitus. It discusses that insulin is released by the pancreas in response to increased blood glucose levels and causes glucose to be taken up and stored or used for energy. It describes the two main types of diabetes - type 1 which results from immune destruction of pancreatic beta cells requiring insulin treatment, and type 2 which involves insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency. It outlines treatments for both types including various insulin regimens for type 1 and oral hypoglycemic agents and lifestyle changes for type 2.
This document provides information about diabetes, including the different types of diabetes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. It discusses that diabetes is a metabolic disease where the body cannot properly use or store glucose due to insufficient insulin production or resistance. The two main types are type 1 diabetes which results from autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta cells, and type 2 diabetes which involves insulin resistance and relative lack of insulin. Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy. Diagnosis involves blood tests, and treatment focuses on blood glucose control through diet, exercise, medication including insulin injections, and preventing complications. While there is no cure, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help manage symptoms.
This document provides information about diabetes, including the different types of diabetes (type 1, type 2, gestational), symptoms, causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. It defines diabetes as a metabolic disease where the body cannot properly use or store glucose, discusses the roles of insulin and the pancreas, and describes the characteristics and management of the three main types of diabetes.
1) There are several classes of anti-diabetic drugs that treat diabetes mellitus by lowering blood glucose levels, including insulin secretagogues, insulin sensitizers, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, and DPP-4 inhibitors.
2) Insulin secretagogues like sulfonylureas stimulate insulin release from the pancreas. Insulin sensitizers like biguanides and thiazolidinediones improve target cell response to insulin without increasing secretion.
3) Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors prevent carbohydrate digestion and absorption, reducing post-meal blood sugar spikes. DPP-4 inhibitors prolong incretin hormone activity, increasing insulin release and reducing glucagon levels in response to meals.
This document provides an overview of diabetes mellitus including the different types, symptoms, risk factors, complications, goals of treatment, and management strategies. It discusses type 1 and type 2 diabetes, defining features and increasing prevalence. Microvascular and macrovascular complications are described. Treatment involves lifestyle modifications like diet, exercise and patient education, as well as oral hypoglycemic medications or insulin therapy. Classes of oral medications like sulfonylureas, biguanides, thiazolidinediones and DPP-4 inhibitors are outlined. The importance of preventing and treating complications is emphasized.
Diabetes describes a group of metabolic diseases in which the person has high blood glucose (sugar),
Due to poor insulin production, or because the body's cells do not respond properly to insulin, or both.

It also discusses the mechanisms and uses of synthetic analogs of amylin and GLP-1. Finally, it covers the types and mechanisms of insulin and its effects in the liver, muscle, and adipose tissue.
Diabetes mellitus is caused by the pancreas's inability to produce insulin or use it effectively, resulting in high blood sugar. It is classified into type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. The main symptoms are excessive thirst, urination, and hunger. Risk factors include genetics, obesity, and lifestyle factors. Treatment involves patient education, pharmacological interventions like insulin, oral medications, and managing complications which can affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels if not controlled.
- Diabetes is a disorder where the body cannot properly process glucose due to either not producing insulin (Type 1) or cells not responding to insulin (Type 2). Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy.
- Symptoms vary but include increased thirst, hunger, urination and fatigue. Treatment involves monitoring blood sugar levels, nutrition, exercise and potentially insulin injections.
- For diabetes nutrition, the focus is on whole grains, vegetables, lean proteins and limiting sugars/fats to control blood sugar and weight. Portion sizes vary depending on blood sugar goals.
Diabetes, a chronic medical condition affecting millions worldwide, is characterized by elevated blood sugar levels that result from the body's inability to properly produce or use insulin.
Insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas, plays a crucial role in regulating blood glucose and facilitating its entry into cells for energy.
There are two main types of diabetes: Type 1, where the immune system mistakenly attacks insulin-producing cells, and Type 2, characterized by insulin resistance and inadequate insulin production. Managing diabetes often involves a combination of lifestyle changes, such
as a healthy diet and regular exercise, and medications designed to
regulate blood sugar levels.
In this context, various medications play pivotal roles, from traditional
insulin therapies to a diverse array of oral and injectable options for Type 2
diabetes.

Graves' disease is an autoimmune disorder causing hyperthyroidism in 60-80% of cases. Genetic and environmental factors contribute to susceptibility. Smoking increases the risk of ophthalmopathy. Hyperthyroidism is caused by thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins that activate the TSH receptor and cause overproduction of thyroid hormones. Treatment involves antithyroid drugs, radioiodine ablation, or surgery. Ophthalmopathy may cause eye swelling, bulging, and vision issues. Thyroiditis refers to inflammation of the thyroid and can be acute, subacute, or chronic depending on duration and symptoms. Subacute thyroiditis causes thyroid pain and temporary changes in thyroid function. Pregnancy causes changes in
The document discusses food poisoning in children, noting that it is caused by bacteria, viruses, and toxins from contaminated food and water. Common symptoms in children include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps, and fever.

The document emphasizes safe food handling, preparation, storage, and avoiding high-risk foods to prevent food poisoning in children.
Motor disorders in children can be caused by genetic, neurological, and environmental factors and affect a child's ability to control their movements. There are two main types: hypokinesia, characterized by decreased movement and muscle tone; and hyperkinesia, characterized by excessive uncontrolled movements. Treatment focuses on improving muscle tone, range of motion, and movement control through therapies like physical therapy and medication. Communication disorders can interfere with everyday interactions and involve deficits in vocabulary, sentence formation, and social skills. They are often accompanied by difficulties in language use, listening, and conversation organization.
There are many tests that can examine the health of the immune system and help diagnose immune disorders. Blood tests can detect typical levels of infection-fighting proteins and immune cells, and determine if the immune system is responding properly to foreign invaders. Prenatal testing of samples like amniotic fluid or placental tissue can check for genetic defects in future pregnancies if a parent has an immune disorder. Treatments involve preventing and treating infections, boosting the immune system, and addressing the underlying cause, which may include long-term antibiotics, immunoglobulin therapy, stem cell transplantation, or gene therapy.

2. Overview
Type 2 is the most common form of diabetes (DM).
In this form, the body does not produce enough insulin or the cells ignore the insulin that is
produced.
Insulin is required by the body in order to use sugar.
Insulin takes the sugar from the blood into the cells.
When glucose builds up in the blood instead of going into cells, it can cause some problems:
In the short-term, your cells may be starved for energy
In time, high blood glucose may hurt your eyes, kidneys, nerves, or heart.
3. Insulin
Inside the pancreas, beta cells make the
hormone insulin.
Beta cells release insulin to help the body use
or store blood glucose from food.
In people with type 1 diabetes, the pancreas no
longer makes insulin.
The beta cells have been destroyed and insulin
shots are the only way to keep blood glucose
levels down.
People with type 2 diabetes make insulin, but
their bodies don't respond well to it.
Only some people with type 2 diabetes need
diabetes pills or insulin shots to help their bodies
use glucose for energy.
4. Conditions that can arise from Type 2 DM
Hypoglycemia
Hyperglycemia
Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic Nonketotic Syndrome
(HHNS)
5. Drugs used in diabetes treat diabetes mellitus by
lowering the glucose level in the blood. With the
exceptions of insulin, exenatide, liraglutide and
pramlintide, all are administered orally and are
thus also called oral hypoglycemic agents or oral
antihyperglycemic agents. There are different
classes of anti-diabetic drugs, and their selection
depends on the nature of the diabetes, age and
situation of the person, as well as other factors.
Diabetes mellitus type 1 is a disease caused by
the lack of insulin. Insulin must be used in type
1, which must be injected.
Diabetes mellitus type 2 is a disease of insulin
resistance by cells. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is
the most common type of diabetes. Treatments
include agents that increase the amount of
insulin secreted by the pancreas, agents that
increase the sensitivity of target organs to
insulin, and agents that decrease the rate at
which glucose is absorbed from the
gastrointestinal tract.
Several groups of drugs, mostly given by mouth,
are effective in type 2, often in combination. The
therapeutic combination in type 2 may include
insulin, not necessarily because oral agents have
failed completely, but in search of a desired
combination of effects.
6. Diabetes Medications (Generic)
In type 2 diabetes, when the initial treatment options fail (meal planning, weight loss, and exercise)
to control blood glucose levels, the next step is taking a medicine that lowers blood glucose levels.
All diabetes pills sold today in the United States are members of five classes of drugs:
Sulfonylureas
Meglitnides
Biguanides
Thiazolidnediones
Aplha-glucosidase inhibitors
7. Sulfonylureas:
Work by stimulating the beta cells of the pancreas to release more insulin
Have been around since the 1950s
Are generally taken one to two times a day, before meals
All sulfonylurea drugs have similar effects on blood glucose levels, but they
differ in side effects, how often they are taken, and interactions with other drugs.
Diabinese, Glucotrol and Glucotrol XL, Micronase, Glynase, Diabeta, and
Amaryl are examples of brand names on the market.
8. Biguanides:
Lower blood glucose by decreasing amount of glucose made in
the liver
An example is Metformin, brand name Glucophage.
Metformin also helps to lower blood glucose levels by making
muscle tissue more sensitive to insulin so that glucose can be
absorbed.
Usually taken two times a day.
A side effect of Metformin may be diarrhea, but is improved when
taken with food.
9. Thiazolidinediones
Helps insulin work better in muscle and fat and reduces glucose production in the
liver.
Taken once or twice a day with food.
Avandia, Rezulin, and ACTOS are some examples of brand names on the market.
Although effective in lowering blood glucose, thiazolidnediones can have a rare but
serious effect on the liver.
Therefore, your doctor will have to perform blood tests regularly to monitor the
liver.
10. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors
These drugs help the body to lower blood glucose levels by blocking
the breakdown of starches, such as bread, potatoes, and pasta in the
intestine.
They also slow the breakdown of some sugars, like table sugar.
Their action slows the rise in blood glucose observed after meals.
They should be taken with the first bite of a meal.
Side effects include gas and diarrhea.
Precose and Glyset are examples of brand names on the market.
