Introduction
Dapaone-M 5/500 Tablet ER is a combination of two medicines, Dapagliflozin and Metformin, used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps control high blood sugar levels, reducing the chances of serious complications such as heart disease. While effective, it may cause side effects like urinary tract infections and dehydration. Always consult your doctor for personalized advice and follow their instructions carefully.
Directions for Use
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it whole without chewing, crushing, or breaking it. It is to be taken with food.
How it works
Dapaone-M 5/500 Tablet ER combines Dapagliflozin and Metformin. Dapagliflozin removes excess sugar from the body through urine, while Metformin lowers sugar production in the liver, delays glucose absorption from the intestines, and increases the body's sensitivity to insulin. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.
Quick Tips
You have been prescribed this combination medicine as it can control blood sugar better than metformin alone. It also reduces the risk of heart attack, heart failure, or other cardiovascular events. Continue to exercise regularly, eat a healthy diet, and take your other diabetes medicines (if prescribed) along with Dapaone-M 5/500 Tablet ER. Take it with food to lower your chance of having an upset stomach. Dapaone-M 5/500 Tablet ER can cause urinary tract infection. Make sure to drink plenty of fluids and practice good genital hygiene. It may cause your body to lose too much fluid (dehydration) or you to urinate more often. Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. It can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) when used with other antidiabetic medicines, alcohol, or if you delay or miss a meal. Always carry some sugary food or fruit juice with you in case you experience hypoglycemia symptoms such as cold sweats, cool pale skin, tremor, and anxious feeling.
