ST-Gliptin 100
Sitagliptin phosphate is a medication used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is an oral antidiabetic drug that belongs to a class of medications known as dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors.
Sitagliptin works by inhibiting the activity of DPP-4, an enzyme that degrades incretin hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).
Incretin hormones play a role in regulating blood sugar levels by increasing insulin secretion from the pancreas and reducing the release of glucagon, which helps lower blood sugar levels after meals.
By inhibiting DPP-4, Sitagliptin prolongs the action of incretin hormones, leading to improved blood sugar control.
Administration:
ST-Gliptin 100 is typically taken orally as a tablet, usually once a day.
It can be taken with or without food.
Indications:
Sitagliptin is primarily prescribed for individuals with type 2 diabetes to help lower and control their blood sugar levels.
It is often used in combination with other antidiabetic medications or as part of a broader diabetes management plan, which may include dietary and lifestyle changes.
ST-Gliptin 100 is generally well-tolerated and can be a valuable addition to the treatment regimen of individuals with type 2 diabetes. It helps improve blood sugar control by enhancing the action of incretin hormones, particularly when used in combination with other antidiabetic medications.
