Slide 18:Basal insulin Controls glucose production between meals and overnight Near-constant levels Usually ~50% of daily needs Bolus insulin (mealtime or prandial) Limits hyperglycemia after meals Immediate rise and sharp peak at 1 hour postmeal 10% to 20% of total daily insulin requirement at each meal For ideal insulin replacement therapy, each component should come from a different insulin with a specific profile or via an insulin pump (with one insulin)
Physiologic Multiple Injection RegimensThe Basal-Bolus Insulin Concept
Slide 19:Basal-bolus Therapy:
More frequent decision making, testing, and insulin dosing Allows for variable food consumption based on hunger level Ability to skip meal or snack if desired (bedtime) Reduced variability of insulin absorption Easy to adapt to acute changes in schedule (exercise, sleeping in on weekends)

DISCUSSION POINTS: Left figure: Plasma glucose rises after a meal and returns to pre-meal levels as postprandial glucoregulatory mechanisms take effect. Right figure: Tracer studies show derivation of plasma glucose over time after a meal. As glucose from the meal enters the circulation, endogenous glucose production falls. The increase in glucose disappearance (for energy storage) is mediated by insulin action. SLIDE BACKGROUND: N = 5 healthy volunteers (age: 36 y, weight: 69 kg), received a primed, continuous infusion of tritiated glucose for 2 h before the liquid meal (45% dextrose enriched with deuterated glucose, 35% fat, and 20% mixture of amino acids). The labeled glucose was utilized to determine total glucose production (tritiated glucose) and the contribution of meal-related glucose (deuterated glucose).

Increase in glucose disappearance is insulin dependent. Suppression of hepatic glucose production is regulated by the opposing effects of insulin and glucagon.

Diabetes Care 2003; 26:3074-3079 DISCUSSION POINTS: Pramlintide administered at 0 min relative to the mixed meal with regular insulin or insulin lispro Pramlintide prevented the initial postprandial increase in plasma glucose and reduced the overall glucose excursion in both the regular insulin and insulin lispro groups compared to placebo. The profile of the postprandial glucose excursion was influenced by, and in fact reflective of, the onset and duration of action of the concomitantly injected insulin. The optimal timing for pramlintide administration is at mealtime or just prior to the meal. SLIDE BACKGROUND: Regular insulin was administered according to package insert recommendations (t = -30 min), and pramlintide was injected immediately before the meal (t = 0 min). Insulin lispro was administered according to package insert recommendations (t = 0 min), and pramlintide was injected immediately before the meal (t = 0 min). In this study, pramlintide injections were also given at -15, +15, and +30 minutes with respect to the timing of the mixed meal (data not shown on this slide). Pramlintide injections at -15 min prevented the initial postprandial surge in plasma glucose, and the overall glucose excursion was reduced. Pramlintide injections at +15 and +30 min resulted in an initial postprandial surge in plasma glucose, and the overall glucose excursions were not reduced to the same extent as seen at -15 and 0 min pramlintide dose timings. Pramlintide was generally well tolerated. There were no reports of severe hypoglycemic events or serious adverse events. Mild to moderate hypoglycemia (majority in patients with fasting glucose <126 mg/dL) and mild nausea were the most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events. Data are for evaluable patients.DISCUSSION POINTS: Pramlintide administered at 0 min relative to the mixed meal with regular insulin or insulin lispro Pramlintide prevented the initial postprandial increase in plasma glucose and reduced the overall glucose excursion in both the regular insulin and insulin lispro groups compared to placebo.
