TENETOR M500 is a combination of two medications namely Teneligliptin + Metformin hydrochloride which is an anti-diabetic medication. It works by slowing the absorption of glucose by the intestines, increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin, and reducing the liver’s capacity to manufacture glucose. Teneligliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor that increases the release of insulin from the pancreas while reducing hormones that raise blood sugar in the body. This decreases blood sugar levels both after meals and during fasting. This combined medication provides better control of blood sugar.

How does Teneligliptin + metformin hydrochloride Work?

Metformin increases the body’s sensitivity to insulin (a hormone involved in glucose metabolism). This allows our body cells to utilize a greater amount of the circulating blood glucose. Furthermore, it inhibits glucose synthesis by the liver and lowers its absorption in the bloodstream.

Teneligliptin regulates blood sugar levels by inhibiting the action of an enzyme called dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4, which lowers insulin release in the body. It regulates blood sugar levels and improves glycemic management in people with type II diabetes.
