What this medicine is for
It is a medicine in the “gliptin (DPP-4 inhibitor, oral antidiabetic)” category. Gliptins prolong the action of intestinal hormones that stimulate insulin after meals, which lowers blood sugar without themselves causing hypoglycaemia.
In practice: Helps control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes. It is generally taken over the long term, with regular follow-up, and it is not stopped on one’s own initiative.
