Dapanorm GM 1 Tablet ER

Dapanorm GM 1 Tablet ER is a combination therapy used for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus. It contains three active components that work together to help reduce elevated blood sugar levels. By controlling blood glucose, this medicine helps minimize the risk of serious long-term complications such as kidney disease, nerve damage, vision impairment, and cardiovascular issues. It promotes insulin release, improves the body’s response to insulin, and enhances the removal of excess sugar through urine. This medication can be taken with or without food, ideally at the same time every day to maintain stable blood sugar control. The exact dosage and treatment duration will be prescribed by your healthcare provider. It is important not to discontinue this medication without medical advice, as doing so could lead to increased blood sugar levels and a higher risk of diabetic complications. While using this medicine, patients are advised to follow a balanced diet, engage in regular physical activity, and manage their weight as part of their overall diabetes care plan. Some commonly observed side effects include low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), lightheadedness, fatigue, headaches, and nausea. These effects are usually mild and temporary, but medical advice should be sought if they persist or become bothersome. Adequate fluid intake is recommended to avoid dehydration, and proper hygiene is essential to reduce the risk of fungal infections in the genital area, which some individuals may develop. Before beginning treatment, it is important to inform your doctor of any existing kidney or liver conditions, urinary tract infections, or if you are taking diuretics. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should seek medical advice before starting this medication. Excessive alcohol intake should be avoided, as it may intensify certain side effects or disrupt blood sugar control. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels is essential while on this medicine. The three active substances in this tablet—dapagliflozin, glimepiride, and metformin—perform distinct yet complementary roles. Dapagliflozin helps excrete extra glucose through the urine. Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin and enhances the body’s utilization of insulin. Metformin reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver, decreases sugar absorption from food, and increases the body’s sensitivity to insulin. These combined effects help in better glycemic control throughout the day. In case a dose is missed, it should be taken as soon as remembered. If the time is close to the next scheduled dose, the missed dose should be skipped to avoid doubling up. Always follow your prescribed schedule and do not self-adjust the dosage.
