Pharmacokinetics of Gliptins Sitagliptin is well absorbed orally, is little metabolized and is largely excreted unchanged in urine with a t½ averaging 12 hours. Dose reduction is needed in renal impairment, but not in liver disease. Vildaglitptin: The major route of elimination of vildagliptin is by hepatic metabolism; only 20–25% is excreted unchanged in urine. Dose reduction is needed in moderately severe liver and kidney disease. Linagliptin lowers HbA 1c by 0.4–0.6% when added to metformin, sulfonylurea, or pioglitazone. The dosage is 5 mg daily and since it is primarily excreted via the bile, no dosage adjustment is needed in renal failure. Saxagliptin is given orally as 2.5–5 mg daily. The drug reaches maximal concentrations within 2 hours (4 hours for its active metabolite). It is minimally protein bound and undergoes hepatic metabolism by CYP3A4/5. The major metabolite is active, and excretion is by both renal and hepatic pathways. The terminal plasma half-life is 2.5 hours for saxagliptin and 3.1 hours for its active metabolite. Dosage adjustment is recommended for individuals with renal impairment Pathology Revision + GT - Rs. 999/- You will get access to all till NEET - You can enrol to Subscribe here today

Contributory negligence: A doctrine of common law that if a person was injured in part due to his/her own negligence (his/her negligence "contributed" to the accident), the injured party would not be entitled to collect any damages (money) from another party who supposedly caused the accident Last chance clear doctrine: The rule of last clear chance operates when the plaintiff negligently enters into an area of danger from which the person cannot extricatehimself or herself. The defendant has the final opportunity to prevent the harm that the plaintiff otherwise will suffer. The doctrine wasformulated to relieve the severity of the application of the contributory negligence rule against the plaintiff, which completely bars anyrecovery if the person was at all negligent.
