Benefits of SitaOD MSR 100/500 Tablet

This medicine combines two active ingredients that work together to manage blood sugar levels:

Sitagliptin: Stimulates the pancreas to release more insulin, improves insulin utilization, and reduces excess sugar production in the liver.

Together, they provide better blood sugar control, lowering the risk of long-term complications such as kidney and eye damage, nerve problems, and heart disease. With proper use, alongside diet and exercise, this medicine helps you live a healthier, more active life.
