Lipaglyn Tablet is a prescription medication containing saroglitazar (4mg), used to manage high cholesterol and triglyceride levels and improve blood sugar control in patients with type 2 diabetes and related liver conditions.
Uses and Benefits

- Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD): Managing the accumulation of excess fat in the liver in patients with comorbidities like obesity or metabolic syndrome.
- Noncirrhotic Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH): Treating liver inflammation and damage caused by fat buildup not due to alcohol use.

- Dosage: The typical dose is one 4mg tablet once daily, or as advised by your doctor.
