Question 1 of 5

A patient who has just been prescribed an incretin enhancer, asks the nurse how it works. The nurse informs the patient that these types of medications:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because incretin enhancers work by increasing insulin secretion from the pancreas. Incretins are gut hormones that stimulate the release of insulin in response to food intake. By enhancing the action of these hormones, the medication helps the pancreas to release more insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels.


Choice A is incorrect because incretin enhancers do not directly increase insulin production by the pancreas.
Choice C is incorrect because these medications do not affect the production of glucagon.
Choice D is incorrect because the primary action of incretin enhancers is to increase insulin secretion, not decrease glucose uptake by cells.
