One pill to replace three? diabetes combo drug tested

NCT ID NCT07333742

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested whether a single pill containing three diabetes medicines (gemigliptin, dapagliflozin, and metformin) works the same in the body as taking them separately. Fifty healthy adults took either the combo pill or the separate drugs after a meal, and researchers measured drug levels in their blood. The goal was to see if the combo pill is a good alternative for simplifying diabetes treatment.
