Welcome to Today’s
Medical Education Program!
• I am pleased to be here with you on behalf of Merck &
Co., Inc. who is sponsoring this medical education
program.
• The program you are participating in is not an accredited
Continuing Medical Education program.
• The information presented throughout the program will
be consistent with FDA guidelines.
What do you think of when
told:
2-2.5 fold increased risk of CHF
2-3 fold increase in risk for initial MI
3 fold increase in risk for pancreatitis
Decreased leukocyte function
Risk for lactic acidosis
Increased risk for renal failure, retinopathy,
neuropathy

Fundamental Questions





Just because a drug may work at
one or more of the sites of defect
in Type 2 DM - what about:
Efficacy
Side effects
Actually improve outcomes or
make them worse
Decrease mortality or kill people
Fundamental Questions




Is there anything wrong with the
current group of medications?
Do the newer medications fix what is
wrong with the older medications?
Does it really matter what medication is
used first, second, third?
Does it really matter what medication is
used?
New Drug Truthiness



Often no clinically relevant literature
published before medication is released
Studies performed to obtain FDA
approval are useful for FDA approval
Clinically useful studies may lag release
to market by 5 years, or are never done
Today




What are the goals?
What differentiates the medications?
Does it really matter what medication is
used?
Put it all together – ADA way, AACE
way and of course, MY WAY

years of disease

persisted at 10 years for:



ADA Targets
for Glycemic Control
Key concepts in setting glycemic goals: A1C is the primary target for glycemic control.
Goals should be individualized based on:
duration of diabetes
age/life expectancy
comorbid conditions
known CVD or advanced microvascular complications
hypoglycemia unawareness
individual patient considerations
More or less stringent glycemic goals may be appropriate for individual patients.
Postprandial glucose may be targeted if A1C goals are not met despite reaching
preprandial glucose goals.

Metformin and Lactic Acidosis
• “Metformin may provoke lactic Acidosis which is
most likely to occur in patients with renal
impairment. It should not be used with even
mild renal impairment” 1
• Metformin probably not as unsafe as previously
thought.
– 25% users have relative contraindication 2
– Patient’s with lactic acidosis usually have
acute renal failure 3

• 186 x (Creat / 88.4)-1.154 x (Age)-0.203 x (0.742 if

• Current Guidelines call for discontinuation of
Metformin serum creatinine >150 umol/l (1.7
mg/dl).
• Estimated GFR (eGFR) being introduced as
possible better measure of renal function than
serum creatinine alone
• eGFR of 36 ml/min per 1.73m2 would
be somewhat neutral to current use

Treatment of Hypoglycemia in
Patients Treated with Acarbose
• In case of hypoglycemia
(due to sulfonylurea or insulin treatment)
– Glucose (dextrose) must be administered
– Sucrose and complex carbohydrates should
not be administered
Bile Acid Sequestrants
• Bile acid sequestrants lower LDL cholesterol
• Colesevelam (Welchol) a bile acid sequestrant, lowers
glucose levels and AIC levels in T2D patients
Thiazolidenediones
–The bad
–The good
–The very ugly
TZDs and Liver Disease
• From troglitazone – contraindicated in
patients with liver disease
• Diabetes patients frequently have fatty
liver (NASH---Non- Alcoholic Steatorrhoeic
Hepatosis) with elevated LFT
• TZDs decrease liver fat and improve
NASH
• TZDs may be best treatment for NASH
and preventing cirrhosis
Rushakoff RJ: Normalization of abnormal liver function tests in Type 2 diabetic
patients after administration of Troglitazone. Diabetes 48 supplement 1999
Current TZD Side Effects
• Weight Gain: 5-12 lbs in 1 year
– Blunted with metformin
– Worse with insulin
• Edema: 4-30%
– Unresponsive to diuretics
• BUT:
– Increased Cardiac Index
– Increased Stroke volume
– Decreased systemic resistance
– Decreased Blood Pressure

Effect of Rosiglitazone on the Risk of Myocardial Infarction
And Death from Cardiovascular Causes
Steven E. Nissen, M.D., and Kathy Wolski, M.P.H.
CONCLUSIONS
Rosiglitazone was associated with a significant increase in the risk of myocardial
infarction and with an increase in the risk of death…that had borderline significance.

metformin or TZD therapy; incretin mimetic is not
< 110 mg/dL FPG
indicated for insulin-using patients
< 110 mg/dL Preprandial
4 Preferred first agent in most patients
< 140 mg/dL 2-hr PPG
5 Rapid-acting insulin analog (available as lispro, aspart and
glulisine), inhaled insulin, or regular insulin
6 Appropriate for most patients
7 2 or more agents may be required
8 Analog preparations preferred
9 Available as glargine and detemir
10 A recent report (NEJM; 6/14/07) suggests a possible link of
rosiglitazone to cardiovascular events that requires further evaluation.
