How It Works
Tenglyn Tablet contains Teneligliptin, an antidiabetic medication. It works by:
- Increasing insulin release from the pancreas in response to meals.
- Decreasing the levels of glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar) in the body, which helps lower blood sugar levels.
- It effectively lowers both fasting and post-meal sugar levels, improving overall blood glucose control.
Benefits

- Kidney damage (nephropathy)
- Vision problems (retinopathy)
- Nerve damage (neuropathy)
- Risk of limb loss (due to poor circulation)
