Dapavel Trio 500 Tablet comprises three active ingredients:

• Dapagliflozin (10 mg): This component acts as an inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2). By reducing renal glucose reabsorption and lowering the renal threshold for glucose, dapagliflozin helps manage blood sugar levels effectively.

• Metformin (500 mg): As a biguanide, metformin decreases glucose production by the liver, reduces glucose absorption by the intestines, and enhances insulin sensitivity. These actions collectively help control high blood sugar levels.

• Sitagliptin (100 mg): Sitagliptin functions as a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP 4) inhibitor. It increases levels of incretins – hormones that stimulate insulin secretion after meals – thereby helping to lower blood sugar levels.
