Antidiabetic Agents

Antidiabetic agents are medications used to help manage diabetes, a condition where the body has trouble regulating blood sugar levels. These drugs work in various ways: some increase insulin production from the pancreas, others improve the body’s sensitivity to insulin, and some reduce glucose production in the liver or slow the absorption of sugar from food. By controlling blood sugar levels, antidiabetic agents help prevent complications associated with diabetes, such as heart disease, nerve damage, and kidney problems, ultimately improving quality of life for those affected by the disease.
