Dapalex 10 Tablet contains dapagliflozin (10 mg), which impacts your body as follows:

• Blocks Glucose Reabsorption: Dapagliflozin blocks the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys. This means that more glucose is expelled from your body through urine, which helps lower blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

• Reduces Kidney Workload: By blocking glucose reabsorption, dapagliflozin also reduces the workload on the kidneys, which can lead to improved cardiovascular outcomes. This is especially beneficial for people with kidney-related health issues.
