Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. Used in combination with diet and exercise in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycemic control. Used to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, or death in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus with known heart disease. Sitagliptin is a medication that is specifically designed to target and regulate the levels of insulin within the body. It achieves this effect by inhibiting the breakdown of certain hormones, known as insulinotropic hormones, that promote insulin secretion. One of these hormones is glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which has the ability to target insulin secretion to counteract hyperglycemia, or high levels of glucose in the blood. By slowing the breakdown of GLP-1, sitagliptin increases its plasma concentration, thereby promoting increased insulin release, which helps to bring blood glucose levels back within the normal range. Furthermore, sitagliptin also diminishes the secretion of glucagon, a hormone that has the opposite effect of insulin, helping to further reduce elevated blood glucose levels when necessary. Composition Each film coated tablet contains: Sitagliptin: 50 mg Directions for Use Take as per doctor's prescription.
