How to use Zukanorm-DM 10mg/1000mg/100mg Tablet

  • Typically, take one tablet daily, but follow your doctor's specific instructions.
  • Usually taken at the same time each day, with or without meals.
  • Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew or crush.

How Medicine Works

  • 10 mg of Dapagliflozin reduces SGLT2 protein in the kidneys, increasing glucose excretion and lowering blood sugar levels.
  • 500 mg of Metformin decreases blood sugar by lowering hepatic glucose synthesis and enhancing insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues.
  • 100 mg of Vildagliptin inhibits the DPP-4 enzyme, prolonging the activity of incretin hormones that stimulate insulin release and lower glucagon levels.

Related Warnings

Consuming alcohol can increase the risk of hypoglycemia and affect blood sugar levels. While moderate alcohol intake is generally acceptable, monitor your blood sugar closely and consult your doctor for personalized recommendations.

Zukanorm-DM is not usually recommended during pregnancy due to potential risks to the fetus. If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor for alternative therapies.

The safety of Zukanorm-DM during breastfeeding is not well established. Discuss the benefits and risks with your doctor, and consider other medications if necessary.

If you experience hypoglycemia (e.g., confusion or dizziness), take care when driving or operating machinery. Regularly check your blood sugar to avoid unexpected drops.

Use with caution in individuals with compromised kidney function, as kidney function affects both Dapagliflozin and Metformin. Regular monitoring of kidney function is advised.

Use cautiously in individuals with liver disease. Liver function can impact both Metformin and Vildagliptin; therefore, alternative treatments or dosage adjustments may be necessary. Regular monitoring is recommended.
