What Is Repaglinide?

Repaglinide is a new type of non-sulfonylurea short-acting oral insulin secretion and hypoglycemic agent. Stimulating the release of insulin from the pancreas causes a rapid decrease in blood glucose levels, a function that depends on functional beta cells in the islets. Different from other oral insulin-promoting hypoglycemic drugs, it binds different receptors to close APT-dependent potassium channels in -cell membranes, depolarizes -cells, opens calcium channels, and increases calcium influx. Induces insulin secretion from beta cells. This product promotes insulin secretion faster than sulfonamides.
