Onglyza 5 mg Tablet 14 contains saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that is used to treat type 2 diabetes in adults. It is used to treat type 2 diabetes when diet and exercise alone are insufficient to control blood sugar levels. It is the first-line therapy for type 2 diabetes patients, restoring the body's response to insulin. Insulin is the hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. Type 2 diabetes patients either do not produce enough insulin or the insulin produced is incapable of performing its function in the body (insulin resistance). Type 2 diabetes is most common in people in their forties and fifties.Disclaimer:For More Information Contact Your Physician
