OBESITY IN TYPE 2 DIABETES Ashley Crowl, PharmD, BCACP Assistant Professor University of Kansas Objectives Review how to manage obesity in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus Compare antiobesity agents and differentiate benefits vs. risks Obesity 34.9% of adults and 16.9% of youth are obese 23% of these patients have type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) Estimated annual medical costs =$147 billion related to obesity Medical costs = $1,429 more for obese patients than those of normal weight Arthritis DM CVD Obesity Mortality Cancer 1.

Managing Obesity Pt needs to lose weight if BMI 30 or BMI 25 with additional risk factor Assess readiness to make lifestyle changes [take into account competing priorities (i.e. uncontrolled DM or HTN)] Initial weight loss goal of 5-10% of baseline weight within 6 months. Decrease by 500 kcal/day. Manage other risk factors Management of Obesity.AHA/ACC/TOS.2013.

ANTIOBESITY AGENTS Managing Obesity Pt needs to lose weight if BMI 30 or BMI 25 with additional risk factor Assess readiness to make lifestyle changes [take into account competing priorities (i.e. uncontrolled DM or HTN)] Initial weight loss goal of 5-10% of baseline weight within 6 months. Decrease by 500 kcal/day. Manage other risk factors Management of Obesity.AHA/ACC/TOS.2013. 7
Managing Obesity Start comprehensive lifestyle interventions alone or with adjunctive therapies Consider antiobesity agents after initial lifestyle changes with BMI 30 or BMI 27 with additional co-morbidity Continue medication if 5% weight loss within 12 weeks, d/c if not. Refer for more intensive behavioral treatment or bariatric surgery. Management of Obesity.AHA/ACC/TOS.2013. Obesity= chronic disease Maximum weight loss achieved at 6 months Lifestyle or medications Maintenance treatment Continue long-term ( 2 years) comprehensive weight loss programs Monthly contact Reduced-calorie diet Physical activity (>200 min/week) Pharmacotherapy (studies up to 2 years) Management of Obesity.AHA/ACC/TOS.2013.

Choosing an agent Lorcaserin Moderate efficacy, low side effects Caution (avoid) use with serotonergic agents Phentermine/topiramate High efficacy, high side effects Avoid use in moderate-severe CV risk Bupropion/naltrexone Moderate efficacy, high side effects Avoid use with opioids, avoid use in seizures Lorcaserin Safety Smith et al.

Surgery Bariatric Surgery compared to medications for T2DM with BMI >35 DM remission occurred in 75% in gastric bypass & 95% in biliopancreatic-diversion A1C reductions: 7.69±0.57% (medications) 6.35±1.42% (gastric bypass) 4.95±0.49% (biliopancreatic-diversion) Mingrone et al. NEJM. 2015 Summary Start with lifestyle changes This needs to be ingrained! Obesity with T2DM Manage DM first Use weight neutral/loss meds metformin + GLP-1 s are ideal SGLT2 s can be considered but watch for ADE 10
Summary Add antiobesity agents Most studies only looked at 18-65 yo, BMI 27-45 Avoid bupropion/naltrexone with opioids Avoid phentermine/topiramate in moderate-high CV risk Caution with lorcaserin and other serotonin agents Must stop if < 5% of weight-loss from baseline is not achieved in 3 months Individualize treatment!
