Sitara-PM 500 Tablet is taken orally.

Sitara-PM 500 Tablet comprises three active ingredients:

• Sitagliptin (100 mg): Sitagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. It slows the inactivation of incretin hormones, thereby increasing their bloodstream concentrations and reducing fasting and postprandial glucose concentrations in an insulin-dependent manner.
• Pioglitazone (15 mg): As a thiazolidinedione, pioglitazone enhances cellular responsiveness to insulin, increases insulin-dependent glucose disposal, and improves liver sensitivity to insulin. Unlike some other anti-diabetic medicines, it does not stimulate insulin secretion.
• Metformin (500 mg): Metformin is a biguanide, works by decreasing the amount of glucose produced by the liver and reducing the amount of glucose absorbed from the intestines. It also increases the sensitivity of your body's cells to insulin, allowing them to absorb and utilise glucose more effectively.
