Is saxagliptin effective in lowering blood sugar levels

When it comes to hypoglycemic drugs, people's first reaction is traditional drugs such as metformin and insulin. In fact, in recent years, with the rapid development of biopharmaceutical technology, many new types of hypoglycemic drugs with different mechanisms of action from traditional oral hypoglycemic drugs have emerged. One of them is the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, represented by Lukozo Sagagliptin tablets (produced by Qilu Pharmaceutical). Many people are asking, 'Is saxagliptin effective in lowering blood sugar?'? Overall, there is a clear answer to the question of whether saxagliptin has a good hypoglycemic effect, which is that saxagliptin has been widely recognized for its hypoglycemic effects. It can not only effectively reduce fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose, but also improve pancreatic beta cell function and reduce insulin resistance. Meanwhile, saxagliptin can also reduce glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, which is an important indicator reflecting long-term blood glucose control.

Saxagliptin belongs to the DPP-4 inhibitor class of drugs. DPP-4 inhibitors can inhibit endogenous incretin, such as the inactivation of glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose dependent insulinotropic protein (GIP), increase the levels of endogenous GLP-1 and GIP, promote the regeneration and release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells, and inhibit the secretion of glucagon by pancreatic alpha cells, thereby increasing insulin levels and lowering blood sugar.

Compared with traditional hypoglycemic drugs, the advantages of sargliptin are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. It can effectively and steadily reduce blood sugar: sargliptin is mainly used for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes, and plays a highly effective hypoglycemic role by prolonging the action time of GLP-1 and GIP. This mechanism of action is different from traditional hypoglycemic drugs, achieving efficient and stable hypoglycemic effects.

2. High safety: Saxagliptin does not cause serious side effects such as hypoglycemia during treatment, has good cardiovascular safety, does not cause weight gain, and patients can use it with confidence.

3. Easy to use: Saxagliptin is an oral medication, taken once a day, one tablet each time, and the medication time is not affected by meals. It is easy to use and has high patient compliance.

The above is the introduction about "Is saxagliptin effective in lowering blood sugar. Because of its unique mechanism of action, definite curative effect, low incidence of hypoglycemia, neutral effect on body weight, good cardiovascular safety and other characteristics, Lucozo Shagliptin Tablets are recommended by domestic and foreign diabetes guidelines and recognized by more and more diabetes patients. For newly diagnosed patients with type 2 diabetes or patients with a history of diabetes, we can consider using sargliptin to control blood sugar.
