CompositionSitaday 100 Tablet is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus by improving blood sugar control. It is a single-ingredient dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor containing sitagliptin.
Steady blood sugar helps lower the risk of long-term problems such as kidney damage, nerve injury and heart disease. It is prescribed along with diet and exercise when lifestyle measures alone are not enough. Take it in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor, and continue it even when you feel well.
Eat balanced meals with controlled portions of rice, roti and sweets, avoid sugary drinks, 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, especially other diabetes medicines, as these can increase the risk of low blood sugar. Report any swelling of the hands, ankles or feet. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
