Sitasmart-Dapa 100/10 Tablet is a prescription combination medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It contains a dual-action formula of sitagliptin (100 mg) and dapagliflozin (10 mg), which work together to effectively control blood sugar levels alongside diet and exercise. 
Key Information
  • Active Ingredients: Each tablet contains Sitagliptin 100 mg and Dapagliflozin 10 mg.
  • Mechanism of Action:
    • Sitagliptin (a DPP-4 inhibitor) increases the levels of incretin hormones, which boosts insulin secretion after meals and reduces glucose production by the liver.
    • Dapagliflozin (an SGLT2 inhibitor) helps the kidneys remove excess glucose from the body through urine, lowering blood sugar levels independently of insulin and promoting mild weight loss.
  • Uses: It is primarily used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes when single-drug therapy is insufficient. It also helps reduce the risk of serious complications such as kidney damage, eye damage, and cardiovascular death in patients with existing cardiovascular disease.
  • Administration: The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water, once daily, with or without food. It is important to take it at the same time each day to maintain consistency and to complete the full prescribed course of treatment.
