Vidagliptin + Depagliflozin Tablets
Dapagliflozin + vildagliptin is an antidiabetic medication that is prescribed for diabetes treatment. It is prescribed for the treatment of Type II Diabetes. Type II Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic syndrome caused by the body’s inability to metabolize blood sugar or glucose. Two fundamental causes of type 2 diabetes are insulin resistance or inadequate insulin secretion.
Dapagliflozin + vildagliptin contains Dapagliflozin (sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors) and Vildagliptin (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor), which work by increasing the amounts of certain natural substances that lower blood sugar when it is high.
Benefits:
- Dapagliflozin + vildagliptin is a class of anti-diabetic drugs employed in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
- Dapagliflozin aids in eliminating excess sugar from the body through urine.
- Dapagliflozin increases urine glucose excretion and decreases blood glucose.
- Vildagliptin increases glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, thus reducing fasting and post-prandial blood glucose.
Uses:
Dapagliflozin + Vildagliptin is used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Dapagliflozin + Vildagliptin is a fixed dose combination of two antidiabetic agents. Dapagliflozin increases the glucose excretion through urine and decreases the glucose in blood.
