SITARA 100 TABLET 10 contains sitagliptin (100 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Inhibits DPP-4 Enzyme: Sitagliptin works by inhibiting an enzyme called DPP-4 in your body. This enzyme normally breaks down certain hormones that play a crucial role in controlling blood sugar levels.

• Increases Insulin Production: By blocking the activity of DPP-4, sitagliptin effectively increases the action of hormones known as incretins. This leads to increased insulin production after meals.

• Reduces Glucose Release: Along with increasing insulin production, sitagliptin also reduces the amount of glucose released into the bloodstream, thereby helping to lower overall blood sugar levels.
