Description:
Teniva M 20/500mg Tab is a combination oral antidiabetic medication used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
It contains two active ingredients: teneligliptin at a dose of 20mg and metformin hydrochloride at a dose of 500mg. The metformin component may be formulated for immediate-release or sustained-release, which can influence the dosing schedule and tolerability. This combination therapy aims to improve glycemic control through the complementary mechanisms of action of teneligliptin and metformin.
Metformin hydrochloride, a biguanide, primarily works by reducing hepatic glucose production, increasing insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues, and decreasing intestinal glucose absorption. It is a foundational drug in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, known for its effectiveness in lowering blood glucose and its potential cardiovascular benefits. The 500mg dose is a common starting or maintenance dose for metformin.
