Description
**Product Name:** SITAHENZ-DM 1000MG TAB
**Composition:** Metformin + Sitagliptin Phosphate
**Description:**
SITAHENZ-DM 1000MG TAB is a combination medication containing Metformin and Sitagliptin Phosphate, used primarily to manage blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Both active ingredients work in synergy to improve glycemic control.
**Active Ingredients:**
1. **Metformin:** A biguanide that lowers blood sugar primarily by inhibiting hepatic glucose production and improving insulin sensitivity in muscle tissues.
2. **Sitagliptin Phosphate:** A DPP-4 inhibitor that prolongs the action of incretin hormones, which increase insulin release and decrease glucagon levels in the bloodstream in a glucose-dependent manner.

**Benefits:**
1. **Enhanced Blood Sugar Control:** Combined action of Metformin and Sitagliptin offers superior glucose regulation, targeting different pathways of blood sugar management.
2. **Weight Neutral:** Unlike some diabetes medications, this combination is often associated with minimal weight gain.
3. **Cardiovascular Benefits:** Emerging evidence suggests potential cardiovascular benefits with the use of Metformin and Sitagliptin.
4. **Convenient Dosage:** Combining two medications into one tablet simplifies the medication regimen, enhancing patient adherence.
**Dosage and Administration:**
– **Dosage:** Typically, one 1000mg tablet taken once or twice daily, depending on physician recommendations and patient-specific factors such as kidney function and glycemic control.
– **Administration:** The tablet should be taken with meals to minimize gastrointestinal side effects and improve absorption.
**Important Information:**
– **Contraindications:** Not to be used in individuals with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, severe renal impairment, or known hypersensitivity to either Metformin or Sitagliptin.
– **Side Effects:** Potential side effects include gastrointestinal issues (such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea), upper respiratory tract infections, and risk of lactic acidosis (a rare but serious complication).
– **Monitoring:** Periodic monitoring of renal function and blood sugar levels is recommended to ensure safety and efficacy.
– **Lifestyle Modifications:** Patients should maintain a balanced diet, engage in regular physical activity, and possibly incorporate other lifestyle changes to optimize diabetes management.
This medication is part of a comprehensive diabetes care plan, and patients should consult their healthcare provider for personalized advice and regimen adjustments.
