medicine | DPP-4 inhibitors are antidiabetogenic drugs, that are effective as monotherapy in patients inadequately controlled with diet and exercise and as add-on therapy in combination with metformin, thiazolidinediones, and insulin. The DPP-4 inhibitors are well tolerated, carry a low risk of producing hypoglycemia, and are weight-neutral | Homo sapiens |
Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
sitagliptin | potent and highly specific inhibitor of DPP-4 | Homo sapiens | |
vildagliptin | competitive and reversible inhibitor of DPP-4. It is highly specific for DPP-4 relative to other peptidases. Vildagliptin is rapidly and almost completely absorbed following oral administration and inhibits plasma DPP-4 activity by 90% within 30-60 min. DPP-4 activity remains significantly inhibited for more than 12 h following a single dose | Homo sapiens |
