摘要
Vildagliptin (Galvus®, Jalra®, Xiliarx®) is an orally administered dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, vildagliptin 50mg twice daily is indicated for use in combination with metformin or a thiazolidinedione, and vildagliptin 50mg once daily is indicated for use in combination with a sulfonylurea. A fixed-dose combination of vildagliptin/metformin (Eucreas®, Icandra®, Zomarist®) is also available. This article reviews the clinical efficacy and tolerability of vildagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes, as well as summarizing its pharmacological properties.
