Usage of Daparyl-VM 500 Tablet

Daparyl-VM 500 is a combination drug used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It consists of:

  • Metformin (500 mg): A biguanide that increases insulin sensitivity by lowering glucose production in the liver, thus reducing blood sugar levels.
  • Dapagliflozin (10 mg): An SGLT2 inhibitor that raises glucose excretion through urine, helping to lower blood sugar levels.
  • Vildagliptin (100 mg): A DPP-4 inhibitor that increases insulin secretion and lowers glucagon levels to help regulate blood sugar.

Description of Daparyl-VM 500 Tablet

Daparyl-VM 500 Tablet is designed for the management of type 2 diabetes. It combines:

  • Metformin (500 mg): Reduces blood sugar by lowering glucose production in the liver and increasing insulin sensitivity.
  • Dapagliflozin (10 mg): Increases glucose excretion through urine, helping to reduce blood sugar levels.
  • Vildagliptin (100 mg): Increases insulin output while lowering glucagon levels.

How Medicine Works

  • Metformin (500 mg): Lowers blood sugar levels by reducing hepatic glucose generation and increasing insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues.
  • Dapagliflozin (10 mg): Inhibits SGLT2 protein in the kidneys, increasing glucose excretion and lowering blood sugar levels.
  • Vildagliptin (100 mg): Inhibits the DPP-4 enzyme, extending the activity of incretin hormones that promote insulin release and reduce glucagon levels.
