About Macsita 100 Tablet 10

Macsita 100 Tablet is used to manage high blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. It is a single-ingredient antidiabetic medicine containing sitagliptin (a DPP-4 inhibitor).

Eat regular balanced meals, limit sugary drinks and sweets, keep portions of rice and roti controlled, stay physically active and maintain a healthy weight.

Before starting, tell your doctor if you have kidney problems or a history of pancreatitis, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. Attend the blood tests your doctor recommends. Tell your doctor about severe or persistent stomach pain, which can rarely be a sign of a serious problem. Ask your doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
