Sitagliptin is present in ZITUVIMET tablets in the form of sitagliptin free base. Sitagliptin free base is described chemically as 7-[(3R)-3-amino-1-oxo-4-(2,4,5-trifluorophenyl)butyl]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3 (trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazine with an empirical formula of C 16 H 15 F 6 N 5 O and a molecular weight of 407.31. The structural formula is: Sitagliptin free base is a white to off-white, non-hygroscopic powder. It is soluble in methanol and slightly soluble in water. Metformin HCl USP Metformin HCl, USP ( N,N -dimethylimidodicarbonimidic diamide hydrochloride) is not chemically or pharmacologically related to any other classes of oral antihyperglycemic agents. Metformin HCl, USP is a white crystalline powder with a molecular formula of C 4 H 11 N 5 •HCl and a molecular weight of 165.62. Metformin HCl is freely soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol (95%), practically insoluble in acetone and in methylene chloride. The pKa of metformin HCl is 12.4. The pH of a 1% aqueous solution of metformin HCl is 6.68. The structural formula is as shown: ZITUVIMET is available as film-coated tablets containing: 50 mg of sitagliptin and 389.93 mg of metformin equivalent to 500 mg metformin HCl (ZITUVIMET 50/500). 50 mg of sitagliptin and 779.86 mg of metformin equivalent to 1,000 mg metformin HCl (ZITUVIMET 50/1,000).
