Alogliptin

Alogliptin is a medication used to help manage type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class called DPP-4 inhibitors, which work by increasing the levels of natural substances in the body that stimulate insulin release and lower blood sugar when it is high. This helps improve blood sugar control over time. Alogliptin is usually taken once daily and is often used alongside other diabetes medications. It does not cure diabetes but aids in maintaining healthier blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of complications related to the disease.
