I'm just gonna throw a dart and hope it lands on the right answer. Wait, do they have darts in this exam? Hmm, maybe I should have studied more. Oh well, I'm going with G - SGLT2 inhibitors. Why not, right?

Alright, time to put on my thinking cap. I'm gonna go with D - Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists. They sound like they'd have something to do with the brain, right? Or maybe I'm just hungry and thinking about food. Either way, I'm sticking with that one!

Ooh, this is a tough one. I think I'm gonna have to go with F - Biguanide. That's the one that works in the brain, right? Or was it the liver? Eh, close enough!

Oof, this one's a tricky one. I'm going to go with C - DPP4 Inhibitors. They're known to have some effects on the brain, right? I'm just hoping my memory isn't failing me here.

Hmm, let's see. The brain is involved in regulating blood sugar levels, so I'd say the answer is E - Thiazolidinediones. They work by targeting the brain to prevent hyperglycemia. Easy peasy!

Hmm, you might be right. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists do have an effect on the brain. I'll have to reconsider my answer.

I disagree, I believe it is Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists because they target the brain as well.

I think the class of Anti-diabetic medication that works in the brain to prevent hyperglycemia is Sulfonylureas.
