ELIPTIN M TABLET 10'S, commonly used for type 2 diabetes, may cause various side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach upset, loss of appetite, a metallic taste in the mouth, headache, and symptoms similar to a common cold (e.g., stuffy nose, sore throat). Less common but more serious side effects can include severe joint pain, pancreatitis (symptoms like severe stomach pain, nausea, vomiting), kidney problems, allergic reactions (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing), and a rare but serious condition called lactic acidosis (signs include unusual muscle pain, trouble breathing, unusual tiredness, severe stomach pain). Long-term use might lead to Vitamin B12 deficiency. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) can also occur, especially when combined with other diabetes medications. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, contact your doctor immediately.
Allergies
UnsafeDo not take Eliptin M Tablet if you have a known allergy to any of its ingredients.
Eliptin M Tablet is primarily used to control high blood sugar levels in adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It is typically prescribed when diet and exercise alone are not enough to manage blood sugar, or when a single medication (like Metformin) is insufficient.
Eliptin M Tablet contains two active ingredients: Sitagliptin and Metformin Hydrochloride. Sitagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor, and Metformin is a biguanide.
Eliptin M works through two mechanisms. Sitagliptin increases the levels of natural substances called incretins, which help the body produce more insulin when blood sugar is high and decrease the amount of sugar made by the liver. Metformin reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver, decreases glucose absorption from the intestines, and improves the body's sensitivity to insulin.
Take Eliptin M Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually taken once or twice daily with meals to reduce stomach upset caused by Metformin. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet. Swallow it whole with a glass of water.
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach upset, headache, and upper respiratory tract infection. These usually subside as your body adjusts to the medication.
While rare, serious side effects can occur. Metformin can rarely cause lactic acidosis, a serious medical emergency. Symptoms include severe tiredness, muscle pain, difficulty breathing, stomach pain, dizziness, and a slow or irregular heartbeat. Sitagliptin can rarely cause pancreatitis (severe stomach pain, nausea, vomiting) or severe allergic reactions. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these serious symptoms.
Metformin, one of the ingredients in Eliptin M, is often associated with stable weight or modest weight loss, especially in overweight or obese individuals with Type 2 diabetes. Sitagliptin is generally considered weight-neutral. So, Eliptin M is less likely to cause weight gain compared to some other diabetes medications.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
Inform your doctor about your complete medical history, especially if you have kidney or liver disease, heart problems, pancreatitis, or if you are scheduled for any surgery or imaging tests involving injectable dyes. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption. Monitor your blood sugar regularly as advised by your doctor.
It is generally advised to limit or avoid alcohol consumption while taking Eliptin M, especially due to the Metformin component. Alcohol can increase the risk of lactic acidosis, a serious side effect, and can also lower blood sugar levels, leading to hypoglycemia.
Eliptin M Tablet is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless specifically advised by a doctor. High blood sugar during pregnancy can be harmful to both the mother and baby. Always discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor before taking any medication during these periods.
An overdose of Eliptin M Tablet can lead to severe hypoglycemia (very low blood sugar) or lactic acidosis. Symptoms of hypoglycemia include dizziness, sweating, confusion, and tremors. Lactic acidosis symptoms are severe tiredness, muscle pain, difficulty breathing. Seek immediate medical attention or call emergency services if you suspect an overdose.
Store Eliptin M Tablet at room temperature (below 30°C or 86°F), away from moisture and direct light. Keep it out of reach of children and pets. Do not freeze the medicine.
While there are no strict dietary restrictions beyond general healthy eating for diabetes, it is crucial to follow your doctor's and dietitian's advice regarding your diet plan. Limiting processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive carbohydrates will help Eliptin M work more effectively in controlling your blood sugar.
No, Eliptin M Tablet is specifically indicated for the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It is not used for Type 1 diabetes, where the body does not produce insulin, or for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Patients with Type 1 diabetes require insulin therapy.
