Mechanism of Action

Teneligliptin + Metformin is a combination medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It works by two different ways:

1. Teneligliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. DPP-4 enzymes break down a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 helps the body produce more insulin and use insulin more effectively. Teneligliptin helps to keep GLP-1 in the body longer, which helps to lower blood sugar levels.
2. Metformin is a biguanide medication. It works by lowering the amount of glucose that your liver makes, helping your body use glucose more effectively, and slowing down the absorption of sugar from your intestines.
