Sitagliptin
Sitagliptin is an oral antihyperglycemic of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor class. It was developed, and is marketed, by Merck & Co. This enzyme-inhibiting drug is used either alone or in combination with other oral antihyperglycemic agents for treatment of diabetes mellitus type 2. The benefit of this medicine is its fewer side effects in the control of blood glucose values. While safety is its advantage, efficacy is often challenged as it is often recommended to be combined with other agents like metformin.
