Teneligliptin 20mg is a modern oral antidiabetic medication belonging to the class of DPP-4 inhibitors. It works by regulating blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. By inhibiting the DPP-4 enzyme, Teneligliptin increases incretin hormone levels, which stimulate insulin secretion and reduce glucagon release in a glucose-dependent manner. This helps maintain better glycemic control with a lower risk of hypoglycemia. Teneligliptin is often prescribed alongside diet and exercise and can be used as monotherapy or in combination with other antidiabetic agents like metformin.
