Alogliptin + Metformin

Alogliptin + Metformin is a combination medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. Alogliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that helps control blood sugar levels by increasing the release of insulin and decreasing the production of glucose in the liver. Metformin is a biguanide medication that helps lower blood sugar levels by decreasing the production of glucose in the liver and improving the body's sensitivity to insulin. This combination medication is typically prescribed when metformin alone is not sufficient to control blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.
