Drug Mode of Action ::
Sitagliptin inhibits dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), resulting in prolonged active incretin levels.

Reduced glucagon secretion leads to decreased hepatic glucose production.
Drug Interactions ::
Increased risk of hypoglycaemia when used in combination w/ sulfonylureas or insulin.
