About
Istamet 50/1000 from Sun Pharma combines sitagliptin and metformin, two medicines that work together to manage blood sugar in type 2 diabetes.
Uses
- Type 2 diabetes blood sugar control
- Add-on when single medicine is not enough
- Support alongside diet and exercise

How it works
Sitagliptin boosts gut hormones that help release insulin when sugar is high, while metformin lowers sugar made by the liver and improves how the body uses insulin.
How to take
Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually with meals to reduce stomach upset. Swallow whole with water and do not skip meals while on this medicine.
Side effects
- Nausea or stomach upset
- Diarrhoea
- Headache
- Low blood sugar if combined with other diabetes medicines
Precautions
Tell your doctor about kidney, liver or pancreas problems. Avoid heavy alcohol use. Stop and inform your doctor if you have severe stomach pain or unusual tiredness.
