How product works DPfor M 500 Tablet SR is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Metformin and Teneligliptin. Metformin is an antidiabetic medication (biguanide). It works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from intestines and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Teneligliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor which works by increasing the release of insulin from pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces both fasting and postmeal sugar levels. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.
Side Effects "Common Side Effects Headache Hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar level) in combination with insulin or sulphonylurea Upper respiratory tract infection Nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the throat and nasal passages)"
