Active ingredients

The drug GALVUS contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 Vildagliptin
UNII I6B4B2U96P - VILDAGLIPTIN

Vildagliptin enhances the sensitivity of beta cells to glucose, resulting in improved glucose-dependent insulin secretion by increasing the endogenous levels of these incretin hormones. The administration of vildagliptin results in a rapid and complete inhibition of DPP-4 activity, resulting in increased fasting and postprandial endogenous levels of the incretin hormones GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide).
