Istavel D Tablet is a combination medication that helps manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This medication should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exerci

se routine to improve blood sugar control. It helps the body to utilize insulin effectively, which in turn lowers blood sugar levels.

This medication is just one component of an overall treatment plan, which should also include dietary changes, regular physical activity, and weight loss as recommended by your healthcare provider. Common side effects of Istavel D Tablet include urinary tract infections, nasal congestion, sore throat, and upper respiratory tract infections. To prevent dehydration, drink plenty of fluids while using this medication. Some individuals might experience fungal infections in the genital area, which can be managed by maintaining good hygiene. Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have any kidney or liver issues, a urinary tract infection, or if you are taking diuretics. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before using it. Also, avoid excessive alcohol consumption as it can increase the likelihood of side effects. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is crucial while taking this medication.
