Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Used in combination with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes who are not adequately controlled with diet and exercise alone.
This medication is a combination of two drugs: reemogliflozin etabonate and vildagliptin. Remogliflozin etabonate is a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor that works by blocking the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, leading to increased glucose excretion in urine. Vildagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that works by increasing the levels of incretin hormones, which stimulate insulin release from the pancreas and suppress glucagon secretion. This combined action helps to lower blood sugar levels.
