Product information
About
Istamet XR 500 from Sun Pharma is a fixed-dose combination of sitagliptin and extended-release metformin used to manage blood sugar in type 2 diabetes.
Uses
- Type 2 diabetes blood sugar control
- Smoother metformin action
- Support alongside diet and exercise
- Doctor-advised diabetes regimens
How it works
Sitagliptin enhances natural gut hormones so the body releases insulin when sugar levels rise, while slow-release metformin reduces sugar produced by the liver and improves insulin sensitivity.
How to take
Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually with the evening meal. Swallow whole with water without breaking or crushing.
Side effects
- Nausea or stomach upset
- Diarrhoea
- Headache
- Low blood sugar when combined with other diabetes drugs
Precautions
Share your kidney, liver and pancreas history with your doctor. Avoid heavy alcohol. Pause as advised before contrast-dye scans or surgery.
Storage
Keep below 25 degrees Celsius in the original pack, away from light and damp. Store out of reach of children.
