A1c Recommendations 2013 for 65+

• 7.5 - 8% in general for the older adults

• 7% - 7.5% may be appropriate if it can be safely achieved in healthy older adults with few comorbidities and good functional status

• 8% - 9% is appropriate for older adults with multiple comorbidities, poor health, and limited life expectancy (IIA)

• Potential harm in lowering A1C to < 6.5% in older adults with type 2 DM (IIA)

Updated Metformin–CKD Prescribing Guidelines (April 2016)

• Obtain eGFR before starting metformin and annually, more

frequently in those at risk for renal impairment (e.g., elderly).

• Metformin contraindicated in patients with an eGFR <30.

• Starting metformin in patients with an eGFR between 30-45 not

recommended.

• If eGFR falls <45, assess the benefits and risks of continuing

treatment. D/C if eGFR falls <30.

• Hold metformin at the time of / before iodinated contrast

procedure if eGFR 30-60; if h/o liver disease, alcoholism, or heart

failure; or if intra-arterial contrast. Recheck eGFR 48 hrs after

procedure and restart if renal function stable. http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DrugSafety/ucm493244.htm (accessed 4-8-16)

SGLT2-Inhibitors: Mechanism of action

24

Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors

Advantages

• Effective

• Do not cause hypoglycemia when used alone or in combination with metformin

• Associated with weight loss, reductions in BP, and CVD events

Disadvantages: Expensive

May offer unique cardiovascular benefit

Empagliflozin recently approved for use

Cardiovascular Outcomes and Death

CVD death, nonfatal MI or CVA

Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors Disadvantages:

• Increase in risk for “euglycemic DKA”

• High risk for volume depletion, hypotension and dehydration

Use carefully, if at all, in the elderly or those receiving diuretics

• Contraindicated in patients with advanced kidney disease

Effect declines as eGFR declines

Minimal effect with eGFR < 50 ml/min

• These are very new drugs for which long term safety has yet

to be established

Concern for an increase in bladder and breast neoplasms raised in

preclinical trials

• (I would not use this in any male suspected of having

prostatic hyperplasia)

Efficacy of SGLT-2 inhibitors (dapagliflozin) is reduced with declining eGFR.

• Weight gain (up to 10 kg in some patients)

• Reductions in bone density with increase risk of fractures

• Exacerbation of CHF

– Use with caution in patients with pre-existing CHF

• Significant questions raised regarding CV safety of

rosiglitazone (2011)

• Increased bladder cancer risk with pioglitazone

demonstrated in some but not all studies

Patient Case Summary

• Metformin:

– No need to DC therapy based on current guidelines

– Would not increase dose further with eGFR < 50 ml/min

• Sulfonylurea

– No need to lower dose or DC as no evidence hypoglycemia unless

additional medication started that could increase risk

• TZDS

– Raise risk for worsening of LE edema, CHF, and fractures

• SGTL2 inhibitors

– While he may benefit from CVD risk reduction, low eGFR may limit efficacy

• DPP4 inhibitor or GLP-1RA

– Demonstrated efficacy and safety in elderly population

• Add basal insulin with progression of dosing according to home

BG monitoring
