Dapzigard 10 Tablet 15 is used to manage type 2 diabetes by helping the body remove excess sugar in the urine. It also helps protect the heart and kidneys, and is used in some people with heart failure or chronic kidney disease.
It contains dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor. It works by stopping the kidneys reabsorbing sugar, so excess sugar leaves the body in the urine.
Take it once daily, with or without food, and stay well hydrated. Good personal hygiene helps prevent genital and urinary infections.
Tell your doctor about any frequent genital or urinary infections before use. Seek urgent help for feeling very unwell with nausea, vomiting and rapid breathing, which can rarely signal ketoacidosis, even if blood sugar is not very high.

How Dapzigard 10 Tablet 15 Works?
Dapzigard 10 Tablet 15 contains dapagliflozin (10 mg), which works in the following ways:
- SGLT2 Inhibition: It blocks a protein called SGLT2 in your kidneys. This protein usually helps your kidneys reabsorb glucose from your urine back into your blood.
- Reduction of Blood Sugar Levels: By inhibiting SGLT2, dapagliflozin prevents glucose reabsorption, causing it to be flushed out from the body through urine. This process effectively lowers blood sugar levels.
- Mild Diuresis and Caloric Loss: As dapagliflozin increases urinary glucose excretion, it also leads to a slight increase in urination (mild diuresis) and caloric loss, which may assist with weight management.
