Introduction

STERIS SITAGLIPTIN 50 + METFORMIN 500 is a combination therapeutic agent containing Sitagliptin 50 mg and Metformin Hydrochloride 500 mg. This powerful duo is used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus, leveraging Sitagliptin's ability to enhance insulin production and Metformin's role in improving insulin sensitivity and reducing hepatic glucose output.

Uses

• Management of Type 2 Diabetes: STERIS SITAGLIPTIN 50 + METFORMIN 500 is specifically used to control blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes, especially when diet and exercise are insufficient.
• Enhancing Glycemic Control: Sitagliptin boosts insulin levels and lowers blood glucose, while Metformin enhances insulin sensitivity and decreases glucose production, together ensuring better glycemic control.
• Reduction of HbA1c Levels: Regular use helps in lowering HbA1c levels, which is crucial for managing long-term blood sugar levels and preventing complications associated with diabetes.
• Prevention of Diabetes Complications: Effective blood sugar control helps in reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications such as cardiovascular diseases, nephropathy, and retinopathy.

Immediate medical consultation is advised if any severe symptoms occur.
• Long-Term Use Considerations: Long-term use of STERIS SITAGLIPTIN 50 + METFORMIN 500 should be monitored regularly to prevent potential complications such as lactic acidosis and to assess kidney function.
