Zukanorm 100 Sr Tablet 15 contains vildagliptin (100 mg), which has the following effects on the body:

• Inhibition of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4: Vildagliptin is a potent inhibitor of an enzyme called dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) in your body. This enzyme normally breaks down certain hormones that help regulate blood sugar.
• Increased Insulin Secretion: By inhibiting DPP-4, vildagliptin increases the levels of these hormones, known as incretins. The increased incretin levels stimulate insulin secretion from your pancreas.
• Reduced Glucose Production: Alongside increasing insulin secretion, vildagliptin also reduces glucose production by your liver. This helps lower both fasting and after-meal blood glucose levels.

• Store the tablet in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
• Maintain an ideal room temperature of 30 degrees Celsius.

• Regular physical activity, such as walking, swimming, or cycling, helps reduce blood glucose levels. Include at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise in your daily routine.
