SITARED MD IR 1000 TAB — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Sitagliptin 50 mg + Metformin hydrochloride 1000 mg (mouth dissolving/MD tablet, immediate release)

Sitagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormones (GLP-1, GIP), enhancing glucose-dependent insulin release and reducing glucagon. Metformin decreases hepatic glucose production and improves peripheral insulin sensitivity, lowering blood glucose without usually causing hypoglycaemia alone.

Take as prescribed by physician. Usually taken with or after meals to reduce stomach upset. Place the MD tablet on the tongue to dissolve and swallow (with/without water). Do not crush/chew unless advised; follow dose adjustments based on kidney function and blood glucose.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
