==Mechanisms of action==<br />
Diabetes medications have four main mechanisms of action:<br />
* [[#Sensitizers|Insulin sensitization]]: Increase sensitivity of insulin receptors on cells leads to decrease in [[insulin resistance]], and higher effects of insulin on blood glucose levels.<br />
* [[#Secretagogues|Stimulation of beta cells]]: This stimulation increases insulin secretion from [[beta cell]]s of [[pancreas]].<br />
* [[#Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors|Alpha-glucosidase inhibition]]: Inhibition of the [[alpha-glucosidase]] enzyme decreases the rate at which glucose is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.<br />
* [[#SGLT2 inhibitors|SGLT2 inhibition]]: Inhibition of [[sodium-glucose linked transporter 2]] (SGLT2) proteins decreases glucose reabsorption into renal tubules of nephrons, thus increasing amount of glucose excreted in urine.</div>FuzzyBot
