CompositionDAPATURN S 100MG/10MG TABLET 10 is used to manage type 2 diabetes in adults when diet and exercise alone do not control blood sugar well enough. Keeping blood sugar steady helps lower the risk of long-term diabetes problems affecting the kidneys, eyes, nerves, and heart.
It contains dapagliflozin and sitagliptin, which work in different ways. Dapagliflozin helps the kidneys remove excess glucose in the urine, while sitagliptin helps the body release more insulin and reduce the glucose made by the liver. This helps control both fasting and after-meal blood sugar. Continue taking it regularly even when you feel well, and do not stop it without medical advice.
Diet and lifestyle play an important part in managing diabetes alongside this medicine. These include eating regular balanced meals, limiting sugary foods and drinks, staying physically active, and drinking enough fluids to stay well hydrated.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any kidney problems, frequent urinary or genital infections, a history of pancreatitis, or other medicines you take. Drink enough fluids to avoid dehydration, and tell your doctor about severe or persistent stomach pain.
