How It Works

This medicine works by selectively inhibiting the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). This enzyme is responsible for breaking down incretin hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). By inhibiting DPP-4, this medicine increases the levels of these active incretin hormones, which then stimulate the release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells when blood glucose levels are elevated. Additionally, it suppresses glucagon release from pancreatic alpha cells, leading to reduced hepatic glucose production. This dual effect helps lower fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels without causing significant hypoglycemia when used alone.

Mechanism Steps

1
Inhibition of DPP-4 enzyme: This medicine binds to and inhibits the DPP-4 enzyme, preventing it from breaking down incretin hormones.
2
Increased incretin levels: As a result of DPP-4 inhibition, the levels of active GLP-1 and GIP increase in the bloodstream.
3
Enhanced insulin secretion: Elevated incretin hormones stimulate pancreatic beta cells to release more insulin when glucose levels are high.
4
Suppression of glucagon release: Incretins also inhibit alpha cells from releasing glucagon, reducing glucose production by the liver.
5
Improved blood sugar control: The combined effects lead to lower fasting and post-meal blood glucose levels.
