A member asked:

Which one of the gliptins (dpp -4inhibitors) antidiabetic group is the best regarding fasting blood sugar control, side effects and risk reduction according to your experience and clinical trials?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The DP4 inhibitors have very similar results so I would tend to use the less expensive one. Good Luck
