Pharmacological Action
Sitagliptin and the Risk for Hypoglycaemia in Type 2 Diabetes Patients
Sitagliptin, through its effects on sensitizing alpha-cell sensitivity to glucose, can initiate counter-regulatory glucagon responses at higher glycemic thresholds, thus reducing the number of clinically apparent hypoglycemic…
