About SITAMET 50/500MG TABLET 15'S

  • Sitamet 50/500mg Tablet is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, alongside diet and exercise. It combines two antidiabetic molecules — sitagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, and metformin, a biguanide — that work in different ways to lower blood sugar. Metformin reduces the amount of glucose the liver makes and helps the body use insulin better, while sitagliptin increases the levels of hormones that prompt the pancreas to release insulin after meals.
  • How to take it: Take Sitamet as prescribed, usually with food to reduce stomach upset, at the same times each day. The dose depends on your blood sugar control and is decided by your doctor. Keep taking it even if you feel well, and do not stop without medical advice.
  • Side effects & precautions: Common effects include nausea, diarrhoea, stomach upset, headache and a metallic taste, which often ease with time or when taken with food. Low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) is more likely if combined with insulin or a sulfonylurea. Long-term metformin use can lower vitamin B12. Tell your doctor about any kidney problems before starting, and about severe illness, dehydration or heavy alcohol use, as metformin carries a rare risk of lactic acidosis. It is usually stopped before contrast-dye scans or major surgery.
  • Generic alternative: a generic medicine has the same active composition as the branded product — for Sitamet 50/500mg Tablet 15's that is Sitagliptin 50 Mg+metformin Hydrochloride 500 MG. On Medkart you can compare generic options by composition and see the price difference before you buy; the molecule, strength and dosage form match. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before switching.
