Chlorpropamide - (answers)Class: Sulfonylurea for an insufficient production of insulin in DM2; off label
for neurogenic DI
MOA: Stimulates insulin release form beta cells, all potentiate effects of ADH.
Metformin - (answers)Class: Biguanide, first line drug for DM2
MOA: Decreases glucose production in liver, decreases GI glucose absorption and improves insulin
sensitivity by increasing peripheral glucose uptake and utilization; does not stimulate insulin release for
beta cells; inhibits platelet aggregation and reduces blood viscosity.
Acarbose - (answers)Class: Alpha Glucosidase Inhibitor; third-line for DM2 in insulin resistant patients
MOA: Inhibits absorption of CHO in GI, lowers BG levels after meals
Miglitol - (answers)Class: Alpha Glucosidase Inhibitor; third-line for DM2 in insulin resistant patients
MOA: Inhibits absorption of CHO in GI, lowers BG levels after meals
Sitagliptin - (answers)Class: Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitor for DM2
MOA: Inhibits DPP4, breaks down GLP1 and GIP which are released in response to a meal; leads to
increase in secretion of insulin and suppresses the release of glucagon by the pancreas; promotes pre
and postprandial glucose levels.
Saxaglipin - (answers)Class: Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitor for DM2
MOA: Inhibits DPP4, breaks down GLP1 and GIP which are released in response to a meal; leads to
increase in secretion of insulin and suppresses the release of glucagon by the pancreas; promotes pre
and postprandial glucose levels.

MOA: Promotes insulin release from pancreatic beta cells in the presence of elevated glucose
concentrations.
Glucagon - (answers)Class: Antidote to hypoglycemia or insulin overdose
MOA: Stimulates hepatic gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis, raised BG levels; BG concentration rises
within 10 minutes of injection and maximal concentrations are attained at approximately 30 minutes
after injection.
Levothyroxine - (answers)Class: T4 thyroid hormone for hypothyroidism; first line drug of choice for
thyroid replacement and suppression therapy due to longer half-life
MOA: Produce the same effects in the body as endogenous thyroid hormones.
Liothyronine - (answers)Class: T3 thyroid hormone for hypothyroidism
MOA: Produce the same effects in the body as endogenous thyroid hormones.
Liotrix - (answers)Class: Mix ratio (4:1) T4:T3 thyroid hormone for hypothyroidism
MOA: Produce the same effects in the body as endogenous thyroid hormones.
Propylthiouracil - (answers)Class: Antithyroid agent
MOA: Blocks synthesis of thyroxine and triiodothyronine.
Methimazole - (answers)Class: Antithyroid agent; first line drug
MOA: Blocks synthesis of thyroxine and triiodothyronine.
