Dapanorm-M 10 Tablet is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It combines dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, and metformin, a biguanide, to control blood sugar levels by increasing glucose excretion through urine and reducing glucose production in the liver.
Beyond its main use, this medicine also contributes to reducing the risk of complications associated with diabetes, such as heart disease, kidney damage, visual impairment and limb amputations. The dapagliflozin component in the medicine further offers cardiovascular and renal benefits to diabetic patients by lowering the likelihood of hospitalisation due to heart failure, cardiovascular mortality and advancement of kidney disease.
