⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.
Pharmacology
Omarigliptin is a long-acting inhibitor of the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). This enzyme breaks down incretin hormones very quickly. Incretins help lower blood glucose after a meal, because they raise insulin and lower glucagon levels, and they do this only in response to glucose. By blocking DPP-4, Omarigliptin boosts the action of these incretin hormones.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Nobody has tested omarigliptin in pregnant women in clinical trials. So it should be used during pregnancy only if the likely benefit to the mother justifies the possible risk to the fetus. Mothers who are taking omarigliptin should avoid breastfeeding.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
