Explore, where possible, therapeutic choices.

use of oral anti-diabetic agents, noninsulin injectables, and insulin.
Utilize decision aids.

According to UKPDS:
There
is
significant
decrease
in
microvascular complications during the
first 10 years of the study. Then after
another 10 years, the same patients went
back to the same attending physicians
who had the liberty to change medication
of patients. If patients were first on
conventional treatment, the attending
physicians may now opt to change to
intensive. And those who are on intensive
treatment may choose to change to
conventional. After another 10 years (the
blue), those who are exposed on intensive
therapy had a greater microvascular
complications than those who are not. So
there is a legacy of good metabolic
control. If you catch the patient EARLY
and treat them aggressively during the
first 10 years, the chances of being able to
maintain that advantage is kept even after
another ten years, and even if the control
is not as aggressive as during the first 10
years.

A. GLYCEMIC TARGETS

o
INDIVIDUALIZATION is key:
o Tighter targets (6.0 - 6.5%) younger,
healthier, no CV disease
o Looser targets (7.5 - 8.0%) 65 or 70
and older; regardless of age, persons with
comorbidities, hypoglycemia prone, etc.

Sulfonylureas
GLP-1 mimetics
DPP-IV inhibitors
(Older to newer drug: SUs Biguanide alphaglucosidae inhib TZD)
This is approach is used because it is noted that DMspecific complications may be present in up to 2050% of individuals with newly diagnosed type 2 DM.

Pros: decreases microvascular risk in the

Cons: hypoglycemia, weight gain (makes
you hungry, so you eat more), low durability
(means that patients cannot be kept in control
for a long time)
Contraindications:
Type

DM,
ketoacidosis,
azotemia, renal and hepatic impairment, pregnancy
and lactation
Dosage:
Up to 1% reduction in HbA1c
Incretin: enteric hormone that augment glucosedependent insulin secretion when glucose is
taken orally unlike you SUs that will release insulin
as long as it is bounded in the receptor.

glucosidase
inhibitors,
colesevelam,
dopamine agonists, pramlintide) may be
used where available in selected patients
but have modest efficacy and/or limiting
side effects.
In patients intolerant of, or with
contraindications for, metformin, select
initial drug from other classes depicted,
and proceed accordingly.
Consider
starting
with
2-drug
combinations in patients with very
high HbA1c (e.g. 9%).
D. THREE-DRUG COMBINATIONS
o Further
progression
to
3-drug
combinations is reasonable if 2-drug
combinations do not achieve target.
If metformin contraindicated or not
tolerated, while published trials are
generally lacking, it is reasonable to
consider 3-drug combinations other than
metformin.
o Insulin is likely to be more effective
than most other agents as a third-line
therapy, especially when HbA1c is very
high (e.g. 9.0%). The therapeutic
regimen should include some basal
insulin before moving to more complex
insulin
strategies
{next
part
of
discussion}.
o Ultimately,
more
intensive
insulin
regimens may be required {next part of
discussion}.
o Dashed arrow line on the left-hand
side of the figure denotes the option of
a more rapid progression from a 2-drug
combination directly to multiple daily
insulin doses, in those patients with
severe hyperglycaemia (e.g. HbA1c
10.0-12.0%).
o Consider beginning with insulin if
patient
presents
with
severe
hyperglycemia
(300-350
mg/dl)
[16.7-19.4 mmol/L]; HbA1c 10.012.0%) with or without catabolic
features (weight loss, ketosis, etc).
VARIATIONS OF ANTI-HYPERGLYCEMIC
THERAPY
What follows are variations of this figure to help
guide the clinician in choosing agents which may
be most appropriate under certain situations: to
avoid weight gain, to avoid hypoglycemia, and
to minimize costs.
Page
available.
Two-drug combinations:
o Metformin PLUS Sulfonylurea
o Metformin PLUS Insulin (usually basal)
Avoiding
glucocentricity
is
key
in
the
comprehensive management of the patient with
Type 2 DM. Cardiovascular risk factor reduction
must incorporate blood pressure and lipid
control, and when indicated, anti-platelet
therapy.
Two-drug combinations:
o Metformin PLUS Thiazolidinedione
o Metformin PLUS DPP-4 Inhibitor
o Metformin PLUS GLP-1 Receptor Agonist
Three-drug combinations:
o Metformin + TZD + DPP-4-i or GLP-1-RA
o Metformin + DPP-4-i + TZD
o Metformin + GLP-1-RA + TZD

4. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
o
o
o
Weight
o Majority of T2DM patients are overweight /
obese
o Intensive lifestyle program
o Metformin
o GLP-1 receptor agonists
o ? Bariatric surgery
o Consider LADA (latent autoimmune diabetes
in adults) in lean type 2 DM patients
Comorbidities
o Coronary artery disease
Metformin: CVD benefit (UKPDS)
Avoid hypoglycemia
? SUs and ischemic preconditioning
? Pioglitazone and decreased CVD events
? Effects of incretin-based therapies
o Heart failure
Metformin: may use unless condition is
unstable or severe
AVOID TZDs
? Effects if incretin-based therapies
o Chronic kidney disease / Renal disease
Increased risk of hypoglycemia
Metformin and lactic acidosis
