Teneligliptin Hydrobromide Hydrate Eq. to Teneligliptin 20mg. + Metformin Hydrochloride (SR) 500mg. BILAYER
Teneligliptin Hydrobromide Hydrate (Eq. to Teneligliptin 20mg) + Metformin Hydrochloride (SR) 500mg, BILAYER is a combination medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus by controlling blood sugar levels.
- Teneligliptin (20mg) is a DPP-4 inhibitor, which works by increasing the levels of incretin hormones in the body. These hormones help stimulate insulin production from the pancreas in response to meals, and reduce the release of glucose from the liver, resulting in improved blood glucose control.
- Metformin Hydrochloride (500mg, SR) is a biguanide that helps lower blood sugar by improving insulin sensitivity, reducing glucose production in the liver, and increasing glucose uptake by muscles. The sustained-release (SR) form allows for a slower and more consistent release of the medication, reducing side effects like gastrointestinal discomfort.
This bilayer tablet combines the two medications in one convenient formulation, providing both immediate and prolonged effects for better blood glucose control. It is typically prescribed for patients with type 2 diabetes who need a combination therapy to optimize their blood sugar levels. The combination of Teneligliptin and Metformin works synergistically to improve glycemic control and reduce the need for multiple medications.
