About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Kaisita 100 Tablet contains Sitagliptin 100 mg, a potent oral antihyperglycemic agent belonging to the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class. It is primarily indicated for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control. Sitagliptin works by selectively inhibiting the DPP-4 enzyme, thereby increasing the levels of incretin hormones such as GLP-1 and GIP. These hormones enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells and suppress glucagon release from alpha cells, resulting in decreased hepatic glucose production and improved postprandial and fasting blood glucose levels. Kaisita 100 is typically administered once daily, with or without food, and dosage adjustments may be necessary in patients with renal impairment. It is generally well tolerated, with a low risk of hypoglycemia when used as monotherapy or in combination with agents not associated with hypoglycemia. Common adverse effects include nasopharyngitis, headache, and upper respiratory tract infections. Caution is advised in patients with a history of pancreatitis. Kaisita 100 should be used as part of a comprehensive diabetes management plan including lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise. Regular monitoring of blood glucose and renal function is recommended during therapy.
