Tenepla-M 500 Tablet contains two active ingredients: metformin hydrochloride and teneligliptin. Here's how this medicine works:

• Metformin hydrochloride helps lower the amount of glucose produced by the liver and delays the absorption of glucose from the intestines.
• Teneligliptin increases the levels of incretin — a gut-derived peptide hormone that inhibits the release of glucagon.
• Glucagon is a hormone responsible for raising the blood sugar levels.
• By blocking glucagon and stimulating the pancreas to release more insulin, teneligliptin helps lower your blood sugar levels and provides better control over diabetes.
