Used For:

Metformin and sitagliptin are medications used together to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. Metformin works primarily by decreasing glucose production in the liver and increasing insulin sensitivity, while sitagliptin enhances the body’s own ability to lower blood sugar by increasing the levels of incretin hormones, which help regulate glucose levels.

Side Effects:

Common side effects of metformin include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort. Sitagliptin may cause headache, nausea, and upper respiratory infections. Both medications can increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with other diabetes medications. Serious side effects may include lactic acidosis with metformin and pancreatitis with sitagliptin.

Precautions:

Patients should inform their healthcare provider about any kidney issues, liver problems, or heart conditions before starting this combination therapy. Regular monitoring of kidney function is necessary, especially in older adults and those with renal impairment. It is important to adhere to dietary guidelines and monitor blood sugar levels as directed by a healthcare professional
