KOMBIGLYZE XR 5/1000MG TABLETS 30'S

Kombiglyze XR 5/1000mg tablets are a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. This combination product contains two different medications: saxagliptin and metformin. Saxagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that helps control blood sugar levels by increasing insulin release after meals and reducing the amount of sugar made by the body. Metformin is a biguanide that works by decreasing the amount of sugar produced by the liver and improving how the body responds to insulin.

The extended-release formulation of Kombiglyze XR allows for once-daily dosing, providing convenience for patients. It is important to take this medication exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider to effectively manage your diabetes. Common side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, and upset stomach. It is crucial to monitor your blood sugar levels regularly while taking Kombiglyze XR and to follow a healthy diet and exercise plan as recommended by your doctor.

Make sure to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are currently taking to avoid any potential interactions. If you experience any severe side effects or signs of low blood sugar such as sweating, shakiness, or confusion, seek medical attention immediately.
