The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have facilitated the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) owing to their superior efficacy and safety with low incidence of adverse effects. Gemigliptin is a new member of this family of drugs, and studies have revealed certain advantages of gemigliptin use compared to its previous congeners. Besides, this drug has also been studied for the treatment of T2DM as monotherapy, in combination with metformin or other oral antidiabetic drugs and in T2DM with moderate-to-severe renal failure. In this review, we explore the published data highlighting the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of gemigliptin along with its recommendations for use in patients with T2DM.
二肽基肽酶-4(DPP-4)抑制剂因其卓越的疗效和安全性以及较低的不良反应发生率,为2型糖尿病(T2DM)的管理提供了便利。格列美脲是这类药物家族的新成员,研究表明,与之前的同类药物相比,使用格列美脲具有某些优势。此外,该药物还被研究用于单药治疗T2DM、与二甲双胍或其他口服抗糖尿病药物联合使用以及用于中重度肾衰竭的T2DM患者。在本综述中,我们探讨了已发表的数据,这些数据突出了格列美脲的药理学、疗效和安全性以及其在T2DM患者中的使用建议。
