Product introduction
Sitabite D 10mg/100mg Tablet is a combination medicine prescribed for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus. It works alongside a balanced diet and regular exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults. By supporting the body’s natural use of insulin and helping eliminate excess glucose, it helps maintain healthier sugar levels in the blood.
This tablet can be taken with or without meals, ideally at the same time each day to maintain steady control of blood sugar. The exact dose will be advised by your doctor, and treatment should not be stopped suddenly without medical guidance, as this may increase the risk of complications such as kidney damage, vision problems, or other diabetes-related issues. It forms part of an overall treatment plan that includes lifestyle modifications like healthy eating, exercise, and weight management.
Some common side effects reported with Sitabite D include urinary tract infections, sore throat, nasal congestion, and colds. Drinking enough fluids helps reduce the risk of dehydration. In some cases, fungal infections in the genital area may occur, which can be prevented by maintaining good personal hygiene.
Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney or liver disease, urinary tract infections, or if you are using water pills (diuretics). Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should also seek medical advice before starting treatment. Limiting alcohol intake is recommended, as it may increase the likelihood of side effects. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels while on this medicine is important.
Uses of Sitabite D Tablet
This medicine is prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Benefits of Sitabite D Tablet
In type 2 diabetes, the body either does not produce enough insulin or cannot use it effectively, leading to increased blood sugar levels. Sitabite D 10mg/100mg Tablet helps control these levels by eliminating excess glucose through urine and improving the action of insulin. As a result, it not only regulates blood sugar but also lowers the chances of long-term complications related to diabetes and supports better overall health.
Possible side effects
Most side effects are mild and resolve as your body adjusts to the medicine. If they continue or cause concern, consult your doctor. Frequently observed side effects include headache, throat or nasal irritation, urinary infections, yeast infections, and respiratory tract infections.
How to take Sitabite D Tablet
Take the tablet exactly as advised by your doctor. Swallow it whole with water without crushing or breaking it. It can be taken before or after food, but for best results, try to take it at the same time daily.
How Sitabite D works
This medicine combines two antidiabetic agents. Dapagliflozin lowers blood glucose by enhancing the removal of sugar through urine. Sitagliptin increases insulin release and decreases glucagon levels, reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver. Together, they provide better control of diabetes.
