• Dapaglyn M tablet contains dapagliflozin and metformin as its active ingredients.
• Dapagliflozin blocks a specific protein in the kidneys called sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2), which is responsible for reabsorbing glucose (sugar) from the urine back into the blood. This leads to the removal of sugar through urine, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
• Metformin reduces the production of glucose and also decreases its absorption in the body.
• As a result, blood sugar levels are lowered, helping to control Type 2 diabetes.

• Store in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Keep it out of reach of children and pets.

• Metformin decreases the production of glucose and also reduces its absorption in the body.
• As a result, the level of blood sugar is reduced, which helps to control Type 2 diabetes.
