API Description: Saxagliptin is an oral anti-diabetic medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs called dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. Saxagliptin works by blocking the action of the DPP-4 enzyme, which breaks down incretin hormones. These hormones help the body increase insulin production after meals and decrease the amount of glucose produced by the liver. By inhibiting DPP-4, saxagliptin increases the levels of incretin hormones, thereby improving blood sugar control. FDA approved on July 31, 2009.
