What Is Steglujan? Steglujan ( ertugliflozin ; sitagliptin ) is an orally administered medication used in tandem with diet and exercise to improve blood glucose (blood sugar) levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. Steglujan contains two medications from two different classes of drugs: ertugliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, and sitagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. Steglujan's active ingredients work together to help improve blood sugar control. SGLT2 inhibitors lower blood sugar levels by causing more sugar to leave the body in the urine. Comparatively, DPP-4 inhibitors decrease blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin release. Insulin is a hormone that helps sugar move from the blood to inside the cells. DPP-4 inhibitors cause the liver to produce less sugar. No generic product containing the two active ingredients in Steglijan, ertugliflozin and sitagliptin, is available. Steglujan is a bran...

What Is Enbrel? Enbrel ( etanercept ) is a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor blocker used to treat several autoimmune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, plaque psoriasis, and others. In autoimmune diseases, the immune system attacks itself and causes symptoms such as pain and swelling. As a TNF inhibitor, Enbrel affects the immune system by binding to TNF alpha and TNF beta, rendering TNF inactive. TNF is a substance in the body that causes inflammation. Enbrel is available as a subcutaneous (under the skin) injection.
