The fixed-dose combination product of alogliptin benzoate and pioglitazone hydrochloride combines 2 antihyperglycemic agents which act differently to achieve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Alogliptin benzoate is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that reduces fasting and postprandial glucose concentrations in a glucose-dependent manner by slowing the inactivation of incretin hormones (eg, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)) by binding to and inhibiting the DPP-4 enzyme. Pioglitazone hydrochloride, a member of the thiazolidinedione class, works as an insulin-sensitizing agent to improve peripheral glucose utilization
