Macsita-M 50/500 Tablet

Macsita-M 50/500 Tablet

Macsita-M 50/500 Tablet is a combination medicine designed to manage type 2 diabetes effectively. It contains Metformin and Sitagliptin, which work together to help control blood sugar levels. Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin, allowing cells to absorb and use sugar more efficiently. Sitagliptin enhances insulin release in response to meals and reduces excessive sugar production in the liver. This dual-action combination is particularly useful for patients who require better blood sugar control when lifestyle modifications alone are not enough. Regular intake under medical supervision, along with a healthy diet, exercise, and routine blood sugar monitoring, ensures optimal diabetes management, reduces the risk of complications like neuropathy, kidney issues, and cardiovascular disease, and supports long-term metabolic health and overall well-being.
