Q1 · Insulin Preparations
NEET PGMediumExplanation
Insulin lispro, aspart and glulisine are rapid-acting analogues with onset within 15 minutes, used at mealtimes. Glargine and detemir are long-acting basal insulins, and NPH is intermediate-acting.
Q2 · Metformin
NEET PGEasyExplanation
Metformin, a biguanide, rarely causes lactic acidosis, especially in renal impairment, and is withheld around contrast studies and surgery. Unlike sulfonylureas it does not cause hypoglycaemia when used alone, and it is weight-neutral.
Q3 · Corticosteroid Effects
MediumExplanation
Corticosteroids raise blood glucose and are diabetogenic, so hypoglycaemia is not expected. Chronic use causes osteoporosis, Cushingoid features, immunosuppression, cataracts and adrenal suppression on withdrawal.
Q4 · Antithyroid Drugs
HardExplanation
Propylthiouracil is preferred in the first trimester because methimazole and carbimazole are associated with fetal malformations such as aplasia cutis and choanal atresia early in pregnancy. Radioactive iodine is contraindicated in pregnancy.
Endocrine Drugs sits within Pharmacology, which carries the same syllabus in both exams. This set runs to 4 questions, each tagged Easy, Medium or Hard, 1 of them at Hard, and 2 drawn from previous-year papers.
Answer first, then read the explanation even on the ones you got right — the reasoning is where Endocrine Drugs marks are actually won, and it is what separates a recalled fact from a question you can solve in a new form. Once the Easy set feels comfortable, filter to Hard to find the gaps Pharmacology examiners keep returning to.
