Composition

Dapagliflozin (5 Mg) + Teneligliptin (20 Mg)

Glidapa Tene 5/20 Tablet 10 is used to help control blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when a single medicine is not enough. Good control helps reduce the long-term risk of complications such as kidney, nerve and eye damage.

It combines dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor that helps the kidneys remove excess sugar in the urine, and teneligliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor that helps the body release more insulin after meals. Take it as prescribed, with or without food.

Staying well hydrated, keeping up good personal hygiene to reduce infections, a balanced diet and regular activity support better control alongside this medicine.

Tell your doctor about any kidney problems before starting, and about other medicines you take. Report signs of a urinary or genital infection, or severe stomach pain with fast or difficult breathing.

Glidapa Tene 5/20 Tablet 10 is used to help control blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when a single medicine is not enough, combining two medicines with different mechanisms.

Glidapa Tene 5/20 Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients that work together to control blood sugar levels:

Teneligliptin (20 mg): Functions as a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that increases the levels of incretin hormones in your body, which stimulate your pancreas to produce more insulin when blood sugar levels are high and also reduces the amount of glucose produced by your liver.
Dapagliflozin (5 mg): Works as a sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor that blocks glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, causing excess glucose to be excreted through urine, which helps lower blood sugar levels.
