Introduction
Dynaglipt Tablet is normally prescribed when diet and exercise alone or other medicines do not prove sufficient to control your blood sugar level. Your doctor may prescribe it alone or in combination with other diabetes medicines. It can be taken with or without food. The dose will depend on your condition and blood sugar levels. Use it strictly as advised by your doctor. You should take it regularly at the same time each day to get the most benefit from it. Do not stop taking the medicine unless your doctor recommends it. This medicine helps you control your blood sugar levels and prevent serious complications in the future. It is important to stay on the diet and exercise program recommended by your doctor while taking this medicine. Your lifestyle plays a big part in controlling diabetes. The most common side effects of this medicine are hypoglycemia, constipation, dizziness, headache, and diarrhea. It is important to recognize the symptoms of hypoglycemia (such as lightheadedness, sweating, dizziness, fainting, and dry mouth) and know how to deal with it. You can carry sugar or glucose candy and have them to control your symptoms if you experience any. Contact your doctor if the side effects do not go away or worry you. Before taking this medicine, let your doctor know if you have ever had kidney disease, heart disease, or pancreas problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking it. Some other medicines you are taking may interfere with this medicine's working. So, make sure your doctor knows about all the other medicines you are using.

You may need regular tests such as kidney function and blood glucose levels to check that the medicine is working properly.

How it works
Dynaglipt Tablet is an antidiabetic medication. It works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces the fasting and postmeal sugar levels.
Quick Tips
Dynaglipt Tablet should be taken at the same time every day since this helps you remember to take it. Be careful while driving or operating machinery until you know how Dynaglipt Tablet affects you.

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 anxiety. Inform your doctor if you notice joint pains or develop symptoms such as stomach pain, nausea, and/or vomiting.
