Pramlintide, sold under the brand name Symlin, is a medication used to treat type 1 and 2 diabetes in people who use insulin at mealtime.[1] It is given by injection under the skin.[1]

Common side effects include nausea, loss of appetite, and headache.[1] Other side effects may include low blood sugar and allergic reactions.[1][2] Use is not recommended in people with gastroparesis.[1] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[3] It is a amylin analogue.[1]

Pramlintide was approved for medical use in the United States in 2005.[1] In the United States 50 doses of 60 mcg costs about 1,000 USD as of 2021.[4]

Medical uses

Dosage

In type 1 DM it is started at a dose of 15 mcg before eating and may be increased up to 60 mcg.[1]

In type 2 DM it is started at 60 mcg and may be increased to 120 mcg.[1]

Pharmacology

Pramlintide is an analogue of amylin, a small peptide hormone that is released into the bloodstream by the β cells of the pancreas along with insulin after a meal.[5] Like insulin, amylin is completely absent in individuals with Type I diabetes.[6]

In synergy with endogenous amylin, pramlintide aids in the regulation of blood glucose by slowing gastric emptying, promoting satiety via hypothalamic receptors (different receptors than for GLP-1), and inhibiting inappropriate secretion of glucagon, a catabolic hormone that opposes the effects of insulin and amylin. Pramlintide also has effects in raising the acute first-phase insulin response threshold following a meal.

Both a reduction in glycated hemoglobin and weight loss have been shown in insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes taking pramlintide as an adjunctive therapy.[7]

Chemistry

Since native human amylin is highly amyloidogenic and potentially toxic, the strategy for designing pramlintide was to substitute residues from rat amylin, which is less amyloidogenic although not completely [8][9] (but would presumably retain clinical activity). Proline residues are known to be structure-breaking residues, so these were directly grafted into the human sequence. Despite its enhanced stability compared to human amylin, pramlintide is still able to organize into amyloid material.[10]

History

Pramlintide has been approved by the FDA, for use by type 1 and type 2 diabetics who use insulin.[11] Pramlintide allows patients to use less insulin, lowers average blood sugar levels, and substantially reduces what otherwise would be a large unhealthy rise in blood sugar that occurs in diabetics right after eating.

Apart from insulin analogs, pramlintide is the only drug approved by the FDA to lower blood sugar in type 1 diabetics since insulin in the early 1920s.[citation needed][12]
