  4. GLUCOSE-LOWERING AGENTS AND RISK OF HYPOGLYCAEMIA • Hypoglycaemia has been associated with: • Activation of adrenergic response1 • Impaired flexibility in substrate shift in the diabetic myocardium2 • QTcprolongation and cardiac rate/rhythm disturbances3 • Excessive glucose fluctuations with marked activation of oxidative stress4 1.

Factors associated with hypoglycaemia • Advancingage • Restricting or reducedmealingestion (especiallycarbohydrateintake) • Longerdiabetesduration • Deterioration of renal and hepaticfunction • Potentiatingeffects of alcohol and drug use • Excessivephysicalactivity 1.

  12. Diabetes Care 36:894–900, 2013 Symptomatic hypoglycemia (clinically mild or severe) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, all-cause hospitalization, and all-cause mortality • Mild/Severe Hypoglycemia • HRs • cardiovascular diseases 2.09 • all-cause hospitalization 2.51 • total mortality 2.48

  13. SUs may increase mortality and CV risk vs metformin: • In a Danish study of 107,806patients, monotherapy with glimepiride, glibenclamide, glipizide, and tolbutamide was associated with significantly increased all-cause mortality vs metformin in patients with and without previous MI • Results were similar for CV mortality and the composite CV end point Schramm TK, et al.

  14. Intern J ClinPrac2013; 67(4), 307–316 Incidence of hypoglycaemic AEs was generally similar for saxagliptinand placebo across groups 6.7 vs 6.32%) Allen, et al. Presentedat EASD 2012; poster #838 Incidence of all reported hypoglycaemic AEs were similar in patients: with a history of CVD (7.2% vs 6.2%) and without (7.8% vs 6.9%) Cook, et al. Presentedat EASD 2012; poster #837

  15. Systematic review and meta-analysis of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with T2DM SGLT2-i have a favourable effect on HbA1c, systolic blood pressure weight and incidence of hypoglycaemia (RR=0.24 [95% CI: 0.06, 0.98] versus active competitors) v SBP=systolic blood pressure; WMD=weighted mean difference; I2=heterogeneity • SGLT2-i are associated with an increased risk for urinary tract infections compared with active comparators (RR=1.51 [1.08, 2.09]) and for genital infections compared with both placebo (RR 3.28, 95% CI 2.19 to 4.90)or other hypoglycaemic medications (RR=4.57 [2.80, 7.45]) • ADA/EASD algorithm considerations RR=relative risk; CI=confidence interval Tsapas, et al.

  17. THE HYPOGLYCAEMIA IN ELDERLY • In the elderly, hypoglycaemia can have serious, sometimes life-threatening, consequences for the heart or brain • Elderly patients have a HIGHER RISK OF COMPLICATIONS: • Falls and injury, cognitive decline, depression, degraded quality-of-life • SYMPTOMS MAY BE DIFFERENT from younger patients: • Blurred vision, instability • Often blunted by an autonomous neuropathy or impaired cognitive function (‘silent’ hypoglycaemia) • FAVOURING FACTORSfor hypoglycaemia other than age are: • Multiple co-morbid conditions • Renal impairment • Multiple medications • More frequent, poorly-adapted behaviour response • Rare use of self monitoring • Absence of patient and caregiver education Lecomte P. Diabetes Metab, 2005;31:5S105-5S111.

  18. Impairedrenalfunctionenhances the risk of hypoglycaemia in elderlypeople with T2DM • Subjectswith T2DM hospitalised with severe hypoglycaemia and loss of consciousness, 24 out of 35 casespresented with renal failure1 • Those with renalfailurewereolderthanthose with normalrenalfunction (74.3 vs 32.8 years) • Impairedrenalfunctionenhances the risk of drug-inducedhypoglycaemia in individualstreated with insulinsecretagogues or exogenous insulin2 1.
