About this product

Overview

Daplyza M 5+1000mg tablet is a combination medication that contains two active ingredients: Dapagliflozin and Metformin. It is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. Dapagliflozin belongs to the class of drugs known as sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, while Metformin is a biguanide antidiabetic medication. This combination is formulated to provide complementary effects in lowering blood sugar levels and improving glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Uses

Daplyza M 5+1000mg tablet is prescribed for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus when lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise alone are not sufficient to control blood glucose levels. The two active ingredients work together to achieve better glycemic control through different mechanisms:

  1. Dapagliflozin: It works by inhibiting SGLT2 in the kidneys, which reduces glucose reabsorption and promotes the excretion of excess glucose through urine, thus lowering blood sugar levels.
  2. Metformin: It helps decrease the production of glucose in the liver and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin, leading to better utilization of glucose by the cells.

Side Effects

As with any medication, Daplyza M 5+1000mg tablet may cause side effects in some individuals. It is essential to seek medical attention if any of the following side effects are experienced and become bothersome:

  1. Common Side Effects:
    • Increased urination

    • Genital yeast infections in both men and women
    • Diarrhea or upset stomach
    • Headache
    • Nasopharyngitis (common cold symptoms)
  2. Serious Side Effects (Rare – Seek Immediate Medical Attention):
    • Signs of ketoacidosis (e.g., fruity breath, confusion, rapid breathing)
    • Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of the face/tongue/throat)
    • Lactic acidosis (unusual muscle pain, difficulty breathing, stomach discomfort)
    • Dehydration or excessive thirst

When Not To Use

Daplyza M 5+1000mg tablet should not be used under the following circumstances:

  3. Severe Kidney Impairment: Individuals with severe kidney impairment or kidney failure should avoid using this medication due to the risk of adverse effects.
