Silinor Tablet 100 mg is an oral antidiabetic medicine containing Sitagliptin 100 mg, used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It belongs to the DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4) inhibitor class, which helps regulate blood sugar levels by enhancing the body’s natural incretin system.
Silinor Tablet 100 mg is commonly used as monotherapy or in combination with other antidiabetic agents such as metformin, sulfonylureas, or insulin to achieve better glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes.

How Silinor Tablet Works
Sitagliptin works by inhibiting the DPP-4 enzyme, which is responsible for breaking down incretin hormones. By blocking this enzyme, it increases incretin activity, resulting in:
-
Increased insulin secretion when blood glucose levels are high
-
Reduced glucagon secretion from the pancreas
-
Decreased glucose production in the liver
-
Improved overall blood sugar control
This glucose-dependent mechanism helps lower the risk of hypoglycemia when used alone.
