SITA 50MG  TAB

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. Overall, through its unique mechanism of action, sitagliptin provides an effective means for the management of type 2 diabetes, offering an important tool in the treatment regimen for individuals dealing with this condition.
