WHAT LIXISENATIDE SANOFI IS USED FOR Lixisenatide Sanofi contains the active substance lixisenatide. Lixisenatide Sanofi is a medicine used to control the blood sugar level when it is too high in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Lixisenatide Sanofi is used with other antidiabetic medicines for diabetes when they are not enough to control your blood sugar levels. Your doctor will prescribe the best combination to manage your type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is also important to control your diet and exercise while using Lixisenatide Sanofi. CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR OR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL IF YOU ARE NOT SURE WHETHER YOUR ANTIDIABETIC MEDICINES CONTAIN A SULFONYLUREA OR BASAL INSULIN. Diabetes mellitus is a condition in which your pancreas does not produce enough insulin to control your blood sugar (glucose) level. Lixisenatide Sanofi helps to control your blood sugar levels only when it is too high. Lixisenatide Sanofi is not a substitute for insulin in patients who require insulin treatments for their diabetes. In some cases it may be used as well as insulin. Your doctor, however, may have prescribed Lixisenatide Sanofi for another purpose. ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY IT HAS BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR YOU. This medicine is only available with a doctor's prescription. BEFORE YOU USE LIXISENATIDE SANOFI WHEN YOU MUST NOT USE IT पूरा दस्तावेज़ पढ़ें

PHARMACOLOGY PHARMACODYNAMICS MECHANISM OF ACTION Lixisenatide is a potent and selective GLP-1 receptor agonist (Ki = 1.33nM in radioligand binding experiments). The GLP-1 receptor is the target for native GLP-1, an endogenous incretin hormone that potentiates glucose-dependent insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta cells. Lixisenatide action is mediated via a specific interaction with GLP-1 receptors, leading to an increase in intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Lixisenatide stimulates insulin secretion when blood glucose is increased but not at normoglycaemia. In parallel, glucagon secretion is suppressed. In case of hypoglycaemia, the rescue mechanism of glucagon secretion is preserved. Lixisenatide further showed a tr पूरा दस्तावेज़ पढ़ें
