Product Overview
About XIGDUO
XIGDUO is a prescription medication containing a combination of metformin hydrochloride and dapagliflozin (dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate), used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps to lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Improves glycemic control by reducing blood glucose levels
- Increases insulin sensitivity, allowing the body to use insulin more effectively
- Helps to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events, such as heart attack and stroke
Active Ingredient & Action
Metformin hydrochloride works by decreasing glucose production in the liver and increasing insulin sensitivity, allowing glucose to enter cells more effectively. Dapagliflozin (dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate) is a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, which helps to reduce glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, resulting in increased glucose excretion in the urine.
Important Notes
XIGDUO is not recommended for patients with severe renal impairment, heart failure, or a history of amputation. Patients with a history of bladder cancer should use this medication with caution. It is essential to follow a healthy diet and exercise regularly while taking XIGDUO. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels, kidney function, and electrolyte levels is recommended. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
