Dapaturn SM 10mg Tablet

Description:
Dapaturn SM 10mg Tablet is a combination anti-diabetic medicine used to effectively manage high blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It contains Dapagliflozin 10mg, Metformin 500mg, and Sitagliptin 100mg. This triple-combination works in different ways: Dapagliflozin helps the kidneys remove excess sugar through urine; Metformin reduces sugar production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity; and Sitagliptin increases natural insulin production after meals and reduces sugar production. This comprehensive approach helps improve blood sugar control and lowers the risk of diabetes-related complications.
