Zucapride S 10/100 Tab 15S

Zucapride S 10/100 Tab 15S contains Dapagliflozin (5mg). Prescription required.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus: used as an add-on to diet and exercise to improve glycaemic control in adults when dual therapy is appropriate.

Dapagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor that reduces glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, increasing urinary glucose excretion and lowering blood sugar. Sitagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin levels, enhancing insulin release and reducing glucagon in a glucose-dependent manner.

Oral tablet. Usually taken once daily, with or without food, at the same time each day. Follow the dose and duration prescribed by the doctor; do not stop abruptly without advice.

Genital fungal infections, urinary tract infection, increased urination, thirst, headache, nasopharyngitis, nausea, diarrhoea, hypoglycaemia (especially with insulin/sulfonylurea), dizziness

For Type 2 diabetes only (not for Type 1 diabetes). Risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (can occur even with near-normal glucose); seek urgent care for nausea/vomiting, abdominal pain, rapid breathing. May cause dehydration/low BP—use caution in elderly, on diuretics, or with low BP. Increased risk of genital mycotic infections and UTIs. Assess kidney function before and during therapy; not recommended in severe renal impairment/ESRD or dialysis. Rare risk of pancreatitis (sitagliptin)—stop and seek care if severe abdominal pain. Inform doctor before surgery/acute illness; SGLT2 inhibitors are often withheld temporarily.

Insulin or sulfonylureas (increased hypoglycaemia risk), diuretics (increased dehydration/hypotension), ACE inhibitors/ARBs and NSAIDs (renal function risk in susceptible patients), digoxin (sitagliptin may slightly increase levels—monitor), strong inducers like rifampicin (may reduce sitagliptin effect), alcohol (may increase dehydration and ketoacidosis risk)

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
