Daparyl M 10/500 Tablet ER

Product Overview
Daparyl M 10/500 Tablet ER is a combination medication designed to help manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It works by controlling elevated blood sugar levels, which in turn lowers the risk of serious diabetes-related complications such as kidney problems, nerve damage, and heart disease.

This medicine should be taken with meals, preferably at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your body and to help you remember your dose. The exact dosage will be determined by your doctor. Do not stop taking this medicine without medical guidance, as this can cause your blood sugar levels to rise and lead to complications like vision problems and kidney damage. It is most effective when combined with a healthy diet, regular physical activity, and weight management as recommended by your healthcare provider.

Some individuals may experience mild side effects such as nasal congestion, sore throat, headache, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Staying well-hydrated can help reduce the chances of dehydration. A few people might also experience yeast infections in the genital area, which can be prevented by maintaining good personal hygiene.

Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver issues, a history of urinary tract infections, or if you are taking diuretics (water pills). Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use. Alcohol consumption should be limited, as it may increase the risk of certain side effects. Regular monitoring of blood sugar is essential while on this medication.

Uses
Helps manage type 2 diabetes mellitus by regulating blood sugar levels.

Benefits
Daparyl M 10/500 Tablet ER helps lower blood sugar by promoting the removal of excess glucose from the body through urine and by improving how your body uses insulin. Managing blood sugar levels effectively reduces the risk of complications such as nerve damage, kidney disease, vision loss, and cardiovascular problems. Taking this medicine regularly, along with following a proper diet and exercise routine, can improve overall health and quality of life.

How It Works
This medicine combines two active ingredients: Dapagliflozin and Metformin. Dapagliflozin helps eliminate extra sugar from the body through urine. Metformin works by reducing sugar production in the liver, slowing sugar absorption in the intestines, and increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Together, they help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
