Active Ingredient & Action
METFORMIN HYDROCHLORIDE works by decreasing glucose production in the liver and increasing insulin sensitivity, thereby lowering blood sugar levels. SITAGLIPTIN (SITAGLIPTIN PHOSPHATE MONOHYDRATE) inhibits the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which breaks down incretin hormones. This leads to increased levels of incretin hormones, stimulating the release of insulin and decreasing the release of glucagon, resulting in lower blood sugar levels.
