Teneligliptin, marketed under the brand name TENELIGOLD 20, is a potent medication used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It belongs to a class of drugs known as dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, which help regulate blood sugar levels.

How Does It Work?

Teneligliptin works by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4. This enzyme is responsible for the degradation of incretin hormones, which play a crucial role in regulating glucose metabolism. By inhibiting DPP-4, teneligliptin increases the levels of active incretin hormones, enhancing insulin secretion and decreasing glucagon levels, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
