Tenglyn M 500 Tablet contains two active ingredients:

• Teneligliptin (20 mg): This is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. DPP-4 is an enzyme that breaks down incretin hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). By inhibiting DPP-4, teneligliptin prolongs the activity of these incretin hormones, leading to increased insulin secretion and decreased glucagon secretion in a glucose-dependent manner.

• Metformin Hydrochloride (500 mg): As a biguanide class anti-diabetic drug, metformin works by reducing glucose production in the liver and decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose. It also improves insulin sensitivity by increasing glucose uptake and utilisation in peripheral tissues.

• These two components work together synergistically to provide better blood sugar control throughout the day due to the sustained-release formulation of Tenglyn M 500 Tablet.
