Insulin pharmacology MCQs, diabetes drugs MCQs, and pharmacology MCQs with answers—Part 8 challenges you with 10 high-yield questions on insulin lispro, sitagliptin, continuous glucose monitoring, insulin degludec, glucagon, NPH insulin, acarbose, dulaglutide, and C-peptide.
CAN YOU SCORE 10/10?
Pause after each question, choose A, B, C, or D, and explain your reasoning before the answer appears. Every MCQ includes a concise explanation connecting drug structure, mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, adverse effects, and clinical use. Post your score in the comments and tell us which question was hardest.
This Katzung-based Part 8 quiz supports active recall and examination revision. It covers insulin types pharmacology, antidiabetic drugs pharmacology, and endocrine pharmacology MCQs without relying on isolated memorization.
CHAPTERS
00:00 Q71 — Structural change that defines insulin lispro
00:30 Q72 — Sitagliptin and DPP-4 inhibition
01:00 Q73 — What compartment does a CGM measure?
01:30 Q74 — Insulin and hepatic ketone production
02:00 Q75 — Why insulin degludec lasts so long
02:30 Q76 — Common adverse effect of emergency glucagon
03:00 Q77 — Mixing regular insulin and NPH: which is drawn first?
03:30 Q78 — Enzyme group inhibited by acarbose
04:00 Q79 — Structural feature of dulaglutide
04:30 Q80 — High insulin with suppressed C-peptide
WHAT THIS DIABETES PHARMACOLOGY QUIZ COVERS
• Insulin lispro structure: reversal of proline B28 and lysine B29
• Sitagliptin mechanism of action through DPP-4 inhibition
• Continuous glucose monitor measurement in interstitial fluid
• Insulin suppression of hepatic ketogenesis
• Insulin degludec multihexamer formation and prolonged basal action
• Nausea and vomiting after emergency glucagon administration
• The “clear before cloudy” rule when mixing regular and NPH insulin
• Acarbose inhibition of intestinal alpha-glucosidases
• Dulaglutide’s GLP-1 analog and human IgG4 Fc structure
• High insulin with low C-peptide after exogenous insulin use
WHO SHOULD WATCH?
This pharmacology practice test is useful for medical, pharmacy, nursing, and allied-health students; junior clinicians; and learners preparing for USMLE Step 1 pharmacology, USMLE endocrine pharmacology, NEET PG pharmacology, MBBS pharmacology MCQs, Pharm.D pharmacology, pharmacy exam MCQs, NCLEX pharmacology, NAPLEX, PLAB, MRCP, GPAT, and board exam review.
Use it for medical student revision, high-yield pharmacology, pharmacology quick revision, insulin types and duration of action review, or active recall before lectures and examinations.

HOW TO STUDY WITH THIS VIDEO
Attempt all 10 questions without notes and record your first score. For each missed item, write a one-line rule linking the drug or device to its defining feature. Repeat the quiz after two or three days and aim for 10/10 without guessing. For deeper review, compare insulin lispro, regular insulin, NPH insulin, and insulin degludec by formulation, onset, duration, appearance, mixing rules, and clinical role.
REFERENCE
Questions were developed from concepts covered in Katzung’s Basic & Clinical Pharmacology, including the chapter on pancreatic hormones and antidiabetic drugs.
