Silinor Tablet 25 mg is an oral antidiabetic medicine containing Sitagliptin 25 mg, used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It belongs to the class of DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4) inhibitors, which help improve blood sugar control along with diet and exercise.

Silinor Tablet works by increasing the levels of natural incretin hormones in the body, which help regulate insulin release after meals and reduce excess glucose production by the liver. It is commonly used either alone or in combination with other antidiabetic medications.

Composition

• Active Ingredient: Sitagliptin 25 mg

Indications

Silinor Tablet 25 mg is indicated for:

• Type 2 diabetes mellitus
• Blood sugar control in adults
• Combination therapy with metformin, sulfonylureas, or insulin (as prescribed)
• Patients requiring improved post-meal glucose control

How Silinor Tablet Works

Sitagliptin works by inhibiting the DPP-4 enzyme, which breaks down incretin hormones. By blocking this enzyme, the medication increases incretin levels, leading to:

• Increased insulin release when blood sugar is high
• Reduced glucagon secretion
• Lower hepatic glucose production
• Better post-meal blood glucose control

This mechanism helps regulate blood sugar in a glucose-dependent manner, reducing the risk of hypoglycemia when used alone.

• Usually taken once daily, with or without food.
• Swallow the tablet whole with water.
• Dosage may be adjusted based on blood sugar levels and kidney function.
