A sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (sglt2) inhibitor that helps your kidneys remove excess sugar from your blood into your urine.
A biguanide that helps lower blood sugar by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing glucose production in the liver.
Treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults, especially those who have not achieved adequate glycemic control with metformin alone or other medications.
May be used in combination with other diabetes medications as directed by a physician.
Remogliflozin etabonate works by blocking SGLT2 in the kidneys, preventing the reabsorption of glucose and increasing its excretion in urine. Metformin improves insulin sensitivity, reduces hepatic glucose production, and enhances glucose uptake in peripheral tissues. This combined action leads to a significant reduction in blood glucose levels.
Store at room temperature (20-25°C), protected from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children. Discard any unused medication after the expiration date.
The dosage should be determined by your physician based on your individual needs and response to treatment.
Dosage may be adjusted over time to optimize glycemic control.
Always follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and administration instructions carefully.
Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar): May occur, especially when combined with other diabetes medications or if meals are skipped.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs): Increased risk due to increased urinary glucose excretion.
Ketoacidosis: Rare but serious side effect.
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea: Common gastrointestinal side effects, especially with metformin.
Dehydration: Due to increased urination.
Yeast infections: Increased risk in women.
Muscle pain or weakness.
Avoid excessive alcohol consumption as it can increase the risk of hypoglycemia and lactic acidosis (a rare but serious side effect).
Caution is advised as hypoglycemia can impair concentration and reaction time.
Consult your doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Not recommended for use in children.
Requires careful dosage adjustment or contraindicated in patients with severe kidney disease.
