ALOGLIPTIN IS A DIPEPTIDYL-PEPTIDASE-4 (DPP 4) INHIBITOR. IT WORKS BY BLOCKING THE BREAKDOWN OF �INCRETIN� HORMONES IN THE BODY. THESE HORMONES ARE RELEASED AFTER A MEAL AND STIMULATE THE PANCREAS TO PRODUCE INSULIN. PIOGLITAZONE MAKES CELLS (FAT MUSCLE AND LIVER) MORE SENSITIVE TO INSULIN WHICH MEANS THAT THE BODY MAKES BETTER USE OF THE INSULIN IT PRODUCES.
