Vildasmart Dapa 100/10 Tablet is a prescription combination medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It contains a dual-action formula of vildagliptin (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 Vildagliptin 100 mg (sustained release) and Dapagliflozin 10 mg.
- Mechanism of Action:
- Vildagliptin (a DPP-4 inhibitor) enhances insulin secretion after meals and reduces glucagon release, which lowers the amount of glucose produced 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 a single medication is not enough. It also helps reduce the risk of serious complications such as kidney damage, eye damage, nerve problems, and cardiovascular death in patients with type 2 diabetes and 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 complete the full prescribed course of treatment.
