Which of the following antidiabetic medication works by decreasing glucose reabsorption?

AMiglitol

BLinagliptin

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

Omeprazole is CYP2C19 inhibitor which can prolong the elimination of warfarin, particularly R-warfarin. R- warfarin is partially metabolized by CYP2C19. The combined use of omeprazole and warfarin has been associated with reports of increased INR and prothrombin time (PT).

Hmm, Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione that works on insulin sensitivity. I don't think that's the right answer for decreasing glucose reabsorption.

I'm pretty sure Exenatide is a GLP-1 agonist, not a glucose reabsorption inhibitor. Maybe I should have paid more attention in pharmacology class.

Empagliflozin, the SGLT2 inhibitor, is the correct answer. It works by decreasing glucose reabsorption in the kidneys. Gotta love those diuretic effects!
