      Thank you for your excellent input . I personally put most of my patients on metformin the moment they are diagnosed plus dietary and exercise advice, have done that many years before guidelines recommended so , I think now specially with covid 19 , it is necessary to act aggressively when it comes to the treatment of Diabetes type 2 .There are also indications that metformin due to its anti-inflammatory effects,. might also affect the course of Covid 19 suffering patients . Thanks again for an excellent summary and your time and dedication.

      There have been several benefits of metformin found that are independent of BG benefits. It has been shown to improve cardiac risk factors (clotting tendency, LP profile, serum fibrin, BP) all independent of the BG lowering effects. With its ability to decrease oxidative stress, decrease blood vessel leakage (both renal and ocular) and decreased growth of fragmented new blood vessels (ocular only) it should be considered a fairly good first line regimen especially for those with increased cardiac risk factors. I can’t remember the dosing used for the studies off hand.

      I agree with you. My general philosophy is to try to minimize medication use when possible. Especially when it seems like so many pharma companies are trying to push meds and changing the thresholds for when to start meds (e.g. in hypertension). I was trained and still believe that all meds have potentially serious side effects: the reality is every new patients started on a med is a n of 1 trial. It is easier from a logistical standpoint to put people on a med than actually have time/ make the effort to counsel them. I think many patients would choose to avoid meds if they knew of ways to solve their issues with less/ no exposure to side effects. In geriatric medicine, we've seen people do better when we carefully go through their med list and eliminate meds. BTW, thank you for your videos: they're great for Board reviews also.

    I came across some studies recommending SGLT2 inhibitors for isolated heart failure with reduced EF.. I want to ask about the risk of hypoglycaemia associated with this group of meds. Another question is about the physiology theoretically it doesn't make much sense to me that they lower blood glucose (maybe I'm not good enough in renal physiology ) : if Na and glucose were excreted in the proximal tubules wouldn't this osmotically lead to increased water excretion (acting like a diuretic ) and glucose wouldn't be much lowered in most cases or even increases (both glc and water are excreted) ? And what would be the effect on renin angiotensin aldosterone system since we are talking about heart failure ?

      Januvia is a DPP-4 inhibitor, discussed @11:40. I know it's a popular medication here in the US, but I'd considered it 3rd or even 4th line (at best).

    Thank you Dr. Strong for another great video. Metformin still looks like the number one drug to prescribe. Do you have any recommendations on how to overcome the B12 absorption problem?

    • @StrongMed
      @StrongMed  4 года назад +5

      No specific recommendations other than to periodically check (at initiation of treatment and q1-2 years), and to provide B12 supplementation if it starts to trend towards the lower limit of normal. In my anecdotal experience, the association between metformin and B12 deficiency is underappreciated, and many doctors don't know they need to monitor for this.

    • @StrongMed
      @StrongMed  4 года назад +4

      I don't think anyone really knows how severe the liver disease needs to be. Personally, I would definitely discontinue/hold metformin (Glucophage) in anyone who developed symptomatic cirrhosis. Whether it should be discontinued/held in patients with less severe liver disease (e.g. chronic HCV with evidence of active inflammation on LFTs or biopsy)? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Greetings Doctor
    I'm a 57yrsold longterm T2 diabetic.
    Was under Glimipiride 2 mg +Metformin 1gm+ INVOKANA 100 + LANTUS Glargine 16units.
    I stopped Glimipiride 2 mg after seeing some video. Hoping to get out of sulfunos.
    15 days now.
    But my fasting and daytime readings are constantly raised to 180 ave. Even while fasting twice a week.
    And I feel drowsy....
    Should I go back to Glimipiride 2mg?
    Thank you

      Some of these medications should not be taken in the setting of kidney failure, although the specific cutoff when the medication should be stopped varies between medications. It's best to discuss your own situation with your own medical providers.

    Thank you for an excellent summary , I wonder about HBA1c goal , is it 7.5 as in the shown image or 7%, 53 mmol/mmol, as in most international guidelines?

    • @StrongMed
      @StrongMed  4 года назад +2

      Thanks for the great question! This is one area in which there is some disagreement between recommendations from different societies and different experts, and why in the video I mentioned that my algorithm was "generally" consistent with ADA and AACE guidelines. In short, ADA/AACE guidelines recommend anyone diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, no matter how near-normal their A1c is, should be placed on metformin. In other words, the implication is that there should be no such thing as "diet controlled diabetes". Other recommendations may use A1c cutoffs of 7.0%. Given that motivated individuals with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes can bring down their A1c 1.0-2.0% with diet and weight loss alone, and because I personally trend my practice towards keeping patient pill burden on the lower end, I don't generally recommend starting metformin at A1c levels < 7.5% *IF* the patient is motivated and otherwise able to enact major dietary changes. The argument against this (i.e. the argument to start every patient on metformin) is that it's cheap and very safe - but I'm not convinced there is any benefit for those patients whose A1c could otherwise be successfully brought to target A1c with diet/weight loss alone.
      EDIT: Have added a pinned comment above to address this.

    Sorry but Metformin should be taken off the market. I for one never had the drug preform at all for me. I also know many people who have suffered though the same results. As far as I am concerned it should never be used. Too many people have either gone through constant sickness or months of frustration because of the drug and eventually ended up having to switch to a different medication all together.

      Good sleep is certainly helpful for promoting health, but it is not enough on its own to treat high blood pressure or diabetes. In some patients, a combination of diet, exercise, and weight loss are sufficient. Unfortunately, most patients will eventually require medication for optimal control.
