Mechanism Of Action and Pharmacodynamic Effects Click here for help
Alogliptin inhibits dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4). Inhibition of this enzyme increases levels of glucagon like peptide 1. This in turn, inhibits glucagon production from pancreatic α-cells and increases production of insulin from pancreatic β-cells.
