Indications
Sitagliptin is used as a supplement to diet and exercise to enhance glycemic control in persons with type 2 diabetes.
Important Use Restrictions: Sitagliptin should not be used in type 1 diabetes patients or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis because it is ineffective in these situations.
