Brief Summary: Exercise is a cornerstone of diabetes management It helps reduce blood pressure promote weight loss lower insulin resistance and improve glucose and lipid triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol profiles Unfortunately the benefits of exercise are often not embraced by diabetic individuals because of the fear of low blood sugar hypoglycemia My laboratory has demonstrated that Autonomic nervous system ANS counterregulatory failure plays an important role in exercise associated hypoglycemia in Type 1 DM ANS responses are significantly reduced in Type 1 DM and are further blunted by antecedent episodes of hypoglycemia Furthermore there is a large sexual dimorphism of reduced ANS responses during submaximal exercise in both Type 1 DM and healthy individuals that is unexplained Accumulating data are demonstrating that serotonergic pathways can regulate ANS discharge Generally serotonergic pathways are inhibitory but both single and longer term administration of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors SSRIs such as Prozac has been demonstrated to increase basal epinephrine levels and enhance baroreflex control of Sympathetic nervous system SNS activity What is unknown is whether fluoxetine can also enhance SNS responses and also override the large ANS sexual dimorphism present during sub maximal exercise Therefore the purpose of this study is to determine if the SSRI fluoxetine Prozac can improve SNS responses during exercise
