Oral Diabetes Medications

We offer many options for oral diabetes medications. These medications are commonly used to improve blood sugar levels and support weight loss. They also may have other benefits—like improving heart and kidney function.

What Are Oral Diabetes Medications?

These medications may fall under one of many different categories. You may be prescribed oral medications such as metformin or sulfonylureas. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors and meglitinides are also commonly prescribed. These medications are usually prescribed to patients with type 2 diabetes to help them lower glucose levels and improve the body’s response to/release of insulin.

These medications may also be prescribed to you to help with weight loss or if you have a resistance to insulin. You will need a prescription to purchase these medications. Some common brands include Farxiga and Januvia. Patients may also use oral alternatives—like Rybelsus—to other popular semaglutide name-brand medications.

Types of Oral Diabetes Medications Available

• Metformin
  This medication is used to reduce high blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. It may be used with insulin or with a sulfonylurea. It can be found in brands such as Glucophage or Axpinet.
• Sulfonylureas
  These medications can also be used to help your pancreas create more insulin and may be used alongside insulin in some cases. Some common brand names include Micronase or Amaryl. Diabinese and Glucotrol are also common brand names for this medication.
• Meglitinides
  These medications work by quickly increasing insulin production when you eat food. Brand names include Prandin and Starlix. They may be used with insulin in some cases.
• DPP-4 Inhibitors
  You may also hear these medications sometimes referred to as “gliptins.” These medications use incretin hormones to regulate glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes and they may be used with insulin. Name brands include medications like Januvia and Trajenta.
• SGLT2 Inhibitors
  Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors include popular brands like Jardiance and Farxiga. These medications remove excess sugar from your body and may also help heart and kidney health. They may be used alongside insulin.
• Semaglutide
  Semaglutide medications are very popular choices for type 2 diabetes treatment. Rybelsus—an oral variation—is now available. These GLP-1 receptor agonists may be used alongside insulin.
