ZavaMet DP 100/1000/10 Tablet SR

Description

ZavaMet DP 100/1000/10 Tablet SR is a prescription medicine formulated with Dapagliflozin 10mg, Metformin Hydrochloride Sustained Release 1000mg, and Vildagliptin 100mg. This triple-drug combination is used for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in adults whose blood sugar levels are not adequately controlled with diet, exercise, or single-drug therapy.

The medicine works through multiple mechanisms to improve blood glucose control, enhance insulin utilization, reduce glucose production by the liver, and promote the removal of excess sugar through urine. Regular use, combined with a healthy lifestyle, helps reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications affecting the heart, kidneys, eyes, and nerves.

How ZavaMet DP 100/1000/10 Tablet SR Works

ZavaMet DP combines three anti-diabetic medicines with complementary actions:

• Dapagliflozin helps remove excess glucose through urine by blocking glucose reabsorption in the kidneys.

Together, these actions help maintain better blood sugar control throughout the day.
