Sitagliptin 50 mg & Metformin HCL 1000 mg Tablets is a combination of two medicines that control high blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This helps prevent serious complications of diabetes, such as kidney damage and blindness, and may reduce your chances of having a heart attack or stroke.
Treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush, or break it.
Sitagliptin and metformin are oral medications that work together to treat type 2 diabetes by reducing blood glucose levels -
Sitagliptin : Increases the production of insulin by the pancreas after eating a meal. It also signals the liver to stop producing sugar when blood sugar levels are high.
Metformin : Reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver and decreases the absorption of glucose in the gut. It also helps the body use sugar better.
Sitagliptin and metformin are taken together with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control. They are not intended for treating type 1 diabetes.
