1. Sitagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, may enhance the glucose-lowering effect of berberine but does not interact significantly with chromium.
2. While no interaction between sitagliptin and chromium is reported, combining it with berberine could boost its hypoglycemic activity.
3. Sitagliptin doesn’t interact with chromium supplements; however, it may amplify the blood sugar reduction effects when taken with berberine.
