About this product

Overview

GUJASIT 15/100mg Tablet is a combination medication containing two active ingredients: Ertugliflozin and Sitagliptin. Ertugliflozin belongs to a class of medications called sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, while Sitagliptin is classified as a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. This combination is used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus to help control blood sugar levels.

Key Ingredients

  1. Ertugliflozin: Ertugliflozin works by inhibiting SGLT2, a protein responsible for reabsorbing glucose in the kidneys. By blocking SGLT2, Ertugliflozin promotes the excretion of excess glucose in the urine, leading to lower blood sugar levels.
  2. Sitagliptin: Sitagliptin works by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4, which is involved in the degradation of incretin hormones. By inhibiting DPP-4, Sitagliptin prolongs the action of incretin hormones, which stimulate insulin release and inhibit glucagon secretion, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.

Uses

GUJASIT 15/100mg Tablet is prescribed for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps improve glycemic control by reducing blood sugar levels through its dual mechanism of action: increasing urinary glucose excretion with Ertugliflozin and enhancing insulin secretion and suppressing glucagon release with Sitagliptin. This combination medication is typically used in conjunction with diet and exercise to achieve optimal blood sugar control in diabetic patients.

Dosage

The dosage of GUJASIT 15/100mg Tablet may vary depending on individual patient factors and response to treatment. It is usually taken orally once daily, with or without food. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and not crushed or chewed. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider to achieve the best therapeutic outcomes.

Precautions

Before taking GUJASIT 15/100mg Tablet, inform your healthcare provider about any medical conditions you have, especially kidney disease or a history of urinary tract infections. Use caution when taking this medication in elderly patients or those with impaired renal function, as they may be at increased risk of certain side effects such as dehydration or urinary tract infections. Monitor kidney function regularly during treatment with GUJASIT, and discontinue use if acute kidney injury occurs.

Side Effects

Common side effects of GUJASIT 15/100mg Tablet may include:

  • Urinary tract infections
  • Increased urination
  • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
  • Headache
  • Nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the nose and throat)
  • Diarrhea
  • Upper respiratory tract infections

These side effects are usually mild and transient. However, if you experience any severe or persistent side effects, contact your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
