Gila Monster Spit---Seriously? Seriously!! The Role of GLP-1 Analogs in the Management of Type 2 Diabetes Kim Purifoy, MSN, FNP-C Windy City Wellness, PC Cheyenne 307-634-6095 purifoyks@aol.com
OBJECTIVES • Discuss the difference between IncretinMemetics and Synthetic created hormones. • Discuss the role of GLP 1 in glycemic control. Where does it come from and what does it do? • Review GLP-1 Analogs currently available; to include efficacy, dosing, risk factors, and appropriate population. • Discuss how to use administration devices and select appropriate needle size.. • Review current Guidelines for diagnosis, glycemic control, and algorithm for treatment. (If there is time)
DIABETES IS A GLOBAL ISSUEPROJECTED CASES BY 2030 • NORTH AMERICA 2010: 37.4M 2030: 53.2M • WESTERN PACIFIC 2010: 76.7M 2030: 112.8M • EUROPE 2010: 55.2M 2030: 66.2M • AMERICAS(Ex-US) 2010: 18M 2030: 29.6M • SOUTH AFRICA 2010: 12.1 M 2030: 23.9M • MIDDLE EAST / NORTH AFRICA 2010: 26.6 M 2030: 51.7M • SOUTH-EAST ASIA 2010: 58.7M 2030: 101 M
What Is The Difference?Does it matter?? Not really. Synthetically created hormones • Insulin (pancreas) • Symlin (synthetic Amylin-pancreas) • GLP-1 • HCG • Estrogen • Testosterone • Levothyroxine Incretin Memetics—specific to the gut and specific to glucose control. • GLP-1 (Glucose like peptide 1) • GIP (Glucose dependent insulintropic peptide)
GLP-1 Action Stimulates glucose-dependent insulin release from pancreatic beta cells Decreases glucagon production from pancreatic alpha cells when glucose levels are elevated. The combination of increased insulin production and decreased glucagon secretion reduces hepatic glucose production when plasma glucose is elevated. Diabetics Levels of GLP-1 are decreased. The insulinotropic response to GIP is diminished but not absent. Defective GLP-1 release and diminished response to GIP may be important factors in glycemic dysregulation in type 2 diabetes. May have more effect on Type 1 Diabetics than originally thought!!
