Dapaone Sm 10/1000/100 MG Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Dapaone Sm 10/1000/100 MG Tablet 10 contains three active ingredients that work together to control blood sugar levels:

• Dapagliflozin (10 mg): Acts as a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, which reduces the reabsorption of filtered glucose from the kidney tubules, leading to increased urinary glucose excretion and lowering of blood sugar levels.

• Metformin (1000 mg): Decreases glucose production in the liver, reduces intestinal absorption of glucose, and improves insulin sensitivity by increasing peripheral glucose uptake and utilisation in the body.

• Sitagliptin (100 mg): Functions as a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that slows the breakdown of incretin hormones, which are natural substances that help increase insulin release from the pancreas when blood sugar levels are high.

• Store in a cool, dry place.

• Keep at room temperature (below 30°C), away from direct sunlight.

• Protect from moisture and humidity.

• Store in the original packaging until ready to use.

• Keep out of reach of children.

• Do not use this medicine after the expiry date printed on the package.

• Monitor your carbohydrate intake by choosing complex carbohydrates (like whole grains and vegetables) over simple sugars, which helps maintain steady blood glucose levels and improves the effectiveness of your diabetes medicine.

• Aim for regular physical activity (at least 150 minutes per week of moderate exercise like brisk walking) as this improves insulin sensitivity and helps your body use glucose more effectively.
