Product Introduction

Dapanorm Trio Tablet ER is a combination medicine used to manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It works alongside a healthy diet and regular exercise to improve blood sugar control. This medicine helps the body utilize insulin more effectively, resulting in better glucose regulation.

It can be taken with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time each day. Your doctor will decide the appropriate dose for you. Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your healthcare provider, as this may cause your blood sugar to rise and increase the risk of serious complications such as kidney damage and vision loss. This medicine should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, including dietary changes, physical activity, and weight control.

The most commonly reported side effects include urinary tract infections, nasal congestion, sore throat, and upper respiratory tract infections. Staying hydrated can help prevent dehydration. In some cases, individuals may experience fungal infections in the genital area, which can be avoided by maintaining good personal hygiene.

Before starting Dapanorm Trio Tablet ER, inform your doctor if you have any issues related to the kidneys, liver, or urinary tract, or if you are taking diuretics (water pills). Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before starting this medicine. Avoid heavy alcohol consumption while using this medication, as it may raise the risk of side effects. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is recommended during treatment.

How It Works

Dapanorm Trio Tablet ER is a combination of three antidiabetic medications. Dapagliflozin works by increasing the removal of excess glucose through urine. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver, decreases absorption of glucose in the intestines, and enhances insulin sensitivity. Sitagliptin increases levels of natural hormones (incretins) that help the pancreas produce more insulin and reduce sugar production by the liver.
