Teneligliptin Ip 20mg Tablets

Teneligliptin is an oral antidiabetic medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. It is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels due to the body’s inability to produce or use insulin effectively. The active ingredient in Teneligliptin is teneligliptin hydrobromide hydrate, which works by inhibiting the activity of DPP-4 enzyme.

 This enzyme breaks down incretin hormones, which are responsible for stimulating insulin secretion in response to food intake. By blocking DPP-4, teneligliptin increases the level of incretin hormones in the bloodstream, leading to increased insulin secretion, reduced glucagon secretion, and decreased glucose production in the liver.

Clinical studies have shown that teneligliptin is an effective and safe medication for the management of type 2 diabetes. It has been shown to improve glycemic control, as evidenced by a significant reduction in HbA1c levels. It also has a low risk of causing hypoglycemia, which is a common side effect of other antidiabetic medications. Teneligliptin is generally well-tolerated by most patients, and adverse effects are usually mild and transient.
