StarStarStarStar

Canagliflozin

StarStarStarStar

Inhibits sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) in the proximal renal tubules, reducing reabsorption of glucose and increasing its excretion in urine.

StarStarStarStar

Metformin

StarStarStarStar

Inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis and attenuates intestinal absorption of glucose.

StarStarStarStar

Repaglinide

StarStarStarStar

Stimulates pancreatic insulin secretion by closing ATP-dependent potassium channels in pancreatic beta cells.

StarStarStarStar

Chlorpropamide

StarStarStarStar

Increases insulin production from the pancreas by stimulating pancreatic beta cells.

StarStarStarStar

Saxagliptin

StarStarStarStar

Prevents the breakdown of incretins by inhibiting DPP-4, leading to increased insulin production and decreased glucagon secretion.

StarStarStarStar

Vildagliptin

StarStarStarStar

Inhibits DPP-4 enzyme, which increases insulin release and decreases glucagon levels during hyperglycemia.

StarStarStarStar

Glimepiride

StarStarStarStar

Sulfonylurea that stimulates insulin release by closing potassium channels in pancreatic beta cells.

StarStarStarStar

Pioglitazone

StarStarStarStar

Activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ), improving insulin sensitivity.

StarStarStarStar

Glipizide

StarStarStarStar

Stimulates insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells.

StarStarStarStar

Tolbutamide

StarStarStarStar

Stimulates insulin release from pancreatic beta cells by blocking ATP-sensitive potassium channels.

StarStarStarStar

Miglitol

StarStarStarStar

Delays carbohydrate absorption by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase enzymes in the small intestine.

StarStarStarStar

Acarbose

StarStarStarStar

Inhibits intestinal alpha-glucosidases leading to delayed carbohydrate absorption.

StarStarStarStar

Linagliptin

StarStarStarStar

DPP-4 inhibitor that enhances glycemic control through increased incretin hormone levels.

StarStarStarStar

Glyburide

StarStarStarStar

Increases insulin release from the pancreas.

StarStarStarStar

Dapagliflozin

StarStarStarStar

Blocks the SGLT2 protein in the kidneys, leading to more glucose being removed through urine.

StarStarStarStar

Rosiglitazone

StarStarStarStar

Increases insulin sensitivity in adipose tissue, muscle, and the liver by activating PPAR-γ.

StarStarStarStar

Sitagliptin

StarStarStarStar

Inhibits dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), increasing incretin levels which enhance insulin secretion and suppress glucagon release.

StarStarStarStar

Empagliflozin

StarStarStarStar

Inhibits SGLT2 in the kidneys, enhancing glucose excretion and lowering blood glucose levels.

StarStarStarStar

Liraglutide

StarStarStarStar

Mimics the hormone GLP-1 to increase insulin secretion, suppress glucagon release, and slow gastric emptying.

StarStarStarStar

Nateglinide

StarStarStarStar

Increases insulin secretion by binding to and inhibiting ATP-dependent potassium channels in pancreatic beta cells.
