Benefits of Sitabite M Tablet SR

Sitabite M 100mg/1000mg Tablet SR combines two medicines that work in complementary ways to control blood sugar:

Sitagliptin: Stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, improves the body’s use of insulin, and reduces excess sugar production by the liver.

Metformin: Reduces glucose production in the liver, delays sugar absorption in the intestines, and increases insulin sensitivity.
