Question

which of the following is a side effect of incretin therapies? hyperglycemia hypoglycemia rapid heart rate slow heart rate

Explanation:

Incretin therapies (like GLP - 1 agonists and DPP - 4 inhibitors) are used for diabetes. They help lower blood sugar, but a possible side effect related to heart rate can be a slow heart rate (bradycardia) in some cases. Hyperglycemia is high blood sugar, which these therapies aim to reduce, so it's not a side effect. Hypoglycemia is less common with incretin therapies as they work in a glucose - dependent manner. Rapid heart rate is not a typical side effect of incretin therapies, while slow heart rate can be associated with some incretin - based medications.

Answer:

D. Slow heart rate
