Dynaduo M 10/1000mg Strip Of 10 Tablets
Description
Dynaduo M tablet is a prescription medicine designed to help adults with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar levels. It works best when used in conjunction with a balanced diet and regular physical activity. By targeting multiple pathways, it helps the body remove excess sugar, control blood sugar after meals, and improve insulin sensitivity, providing more balanced and consistent blood sugar control.
The medicine contains three active components: empagliflozin, linagliptin, and metformin. Empagliflozin helps the kidneys remove extra sugar through urine, reducing blood sugar levels. Linagliptin enhances natural hormones called incretins, which stimulate insulin release and reduce postprandial glucose production. Metformin decreases sugar production in the liver and helps the body use insulin more efficiently, further supporting blood sugar control without typically causing low blood sugar on its own.
Dynaduo M tablet should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually swallowed whole with a glass of water and taken with or after meals to reduce side effects. It is important to take it at the same time every day and not exceed the prescribed dose. If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is close to the next scheduled dose; never double the dose to catch up. Store the medicine in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, moisture, and children.
Some patients may experience side effects, including headaches, upper respiratory infections, constipation, urinary tract infections, or stomach inflammation. Serious complications like lactic acidosis, pancreatitis, or severe low blood sugar are rare but require immediate medical attention. Additionally, the medicine may increase the risk of urinary or genital infections, affect vitamin B12 levels, or cause joint pain in some cases. Regular monitoring and reporting any unusual symptoms to your doctor is essential for safe treatment.
Dynaduo M tablet is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding due to potential risks to the baby, particularly from empagliflozin. Patients with kidney problems, low blood pressure, or a history of pancreatitis, heart issues, or severe allergic reactions should consult their doctor before use. Alcohol should be consumed cautiously as it may affect treatment safety, and patients should discuss all other medicines or supplements they are taking to avoid interactions. Following your doctor’s instructions and maintaining a balanced lifestyle ensures the best outcomes while taking Dynaduo M tablet.

Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
- Empagliflozin works by blocking a protein in the kidneys called SGLT2 (sodium-glucose co-transporter 2). This protein normally helps the kidneys reabsorb glucose (sugar) back into the blood. By blocking SGLT2, empagliflozin facilitates the removal of excess glucose from the body through urine, thereby helping to lower blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes....
- Linagliptin works by inhibiting an enzyme called DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4). This enzyme normally breaks down hormones called incretins, which help regulate blood sugar by increasing insulin release after meals and reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver. By blocking DPP-4, linagliptin increases incretin levels, which helps lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes, especially after eating....
- Metformin works by reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver and improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin. This helps your muscles and other tissues utilize glucose more effectively, which in turn lowers blood sugar levels. It also slightly reduces the absorption of glucose from the intestines, contributing to better overall blood sugar control. Metformin is commonly used as a first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes and generally does not cause low blood sugar when taken alone....
Interactions
Interactions with other medicines
- Dynaduo M tablet may increase the risk of lactic acidosis when taken with carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, drugs that reduce metformin clearance, or alcohol.
- Using insulin, sulfonylureas, or other blood sugar–raising medications may require dose adjustments or closer monitoring.
- Urine glucose and 1,5-AG tests are unreliable for monitoring blood sugar while on Dynaduo M tablet.
- Strong P-glycoprotein or CYP3A4 inducers (like rifampin) may reduce linagliptin’s effectiveness.
- Diuretics may increase urination and risk of low blood pressure, so monitoring is advised.
Interactions with food items
- Avoid excessive alcohol intake, as it may increase the risk of lactic acidosis.
- High-fat meals may slightly slow the absorption of metformin, but do not significantly impact its overall effectiveness.
- No specific foods need to be avoided, but maintaining a balanced diet helps optimize blood sugar control while taking Dynaduo M tablet.
