Dapabite 10 Tablet contains dapagliflozin (10 mg). Here's how this active ingredient works:

• Reduces Renal Glucose Reabsorption: Dapagliflozin blocks certain proteins called SGLT2 in your kidney nephrons that are responsible for absorbing glucose back into your body from urine. By blocking these proteins, more glucose is excreted through urine, which helps lower blood sugar levels.

• Induces Mild Osmotic Diuresis and Caloric Loss: The increased removal of glucose through urine leads to a slight increase in urine output and calorie loss. This can contribute to reductions in weight and blood pressure.

Remember, it's essential to consult your doctor before starting any new medication or altering your current dosage regimen.
