How ZUCATOR M 1000MG TAB Works
Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity in muscles. Sitagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormones (GLP-1, GIP), enhancing glucose-dependent insulin release and reducing glucagon, thereby lowering blood sugar with low risk of hypoglycaemia when used without insulin/secretagogues.
Dosage & Directions
Oral tablets; take exactly as prescribed, usually with meals to reduce stomach upset. Swallow whole with water; do not crush/chew if it is a modified-release form (confirm pack). Maintain diet and exercise; monitor blood glucose as advised.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
