CompositionSitacip M 50/500 Tablet is a combination medicine used to control high blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Maintaining good blood sugar control helps prevent long-term diabetes complications such as kidney damage, nerve problems, vision loss, and heart disease.
It contains sitagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, and metformin, a biguanide. Take this tablet with meals as prescribed, as taking it with food helps reduce the risk of stomach upset. Continue taking it regularly as prescribed, even if your blood sugar readings improve, to keep your condition well managed.
A structured diabetes management plan is essential alongside medication. This includes following a balanced, carbohydrate-controlled diet, staying physically active, keeping a healthy weight, and regularly monitoring your blood sugar levels as advised by your doctor.
Before starting this medicine, tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease, a history of pancreatitis, or severe heart problems. Report severe stomach pain, ongoing vomiting, or unusually fast breathing to your doctor immediately. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding without medical guidance.
