Description:
GLISITAPTIN M KIT is a powerful anti-diabetic combination therapy containing sitagliptin phosphate 100 mg and metformin hydrochloride 1000 mg. It is used in the effective management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, helping patients control high blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of diabetic complications. This dual-action therapy improves insulin sensitivity and enhances natural insulin production.
If you're looking for a reliable formulation of sitagliptin phosphate and metformin hydrochloride tablets, GLISITAPTIN M KIT is designed to deliver clinically proven results with better glycemic control and fewer side effects.
What is Sitagliptin Phosphate and Metformin Hydrochloride?
Sitagliptin Phosphate is a DPP-4 (Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4) inhibitor that increases the levels of incretin hormones, enhancing insulin release and reducing glucose production in the liver.
Metformin Hydrochloride is a biguanide that works by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing hepatic glucose output. It also decreases intestinal absorption of glucose.
Together, they form a synergistic combination that offers better control of blood sugar in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Uses of Sitagliptin Phosphate and Metformin Hydrochloride Tablets
GLISITAPTIN M KIT is prescribed for:
-
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus management in adults
-
Inadequate glycemic control on metformin alone
-
Reduction of HbA1c levels
-
Improving insulin sensitivity and glucose utilization
-
Delaying progression of diabetic complications such as neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy
metformin hydrochloride 1000 mg uses also include management of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in overweight individuals.

-
Diuretics (e.g., furosemide) – may increase risk of lactic acidosis
-
Insulin or sulfonylureas – may increase risk of hypoglycemia
-
Cimetidine – may affect metformin elimination
-
Iodinated contrast media – may increase the risk of acute renal failure
-
Alcohol – enhances metformin’s effect on lactate metabolism, increasing lactic acidosis risk
What Drugs Interact with Sitagliptin and Metformin?
-
ACE inhibitors (e.g., enalapril)
-
NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen)
-
Beta-blockers – may mask symptoms of hypoglycemia
-
Ranolazine, dolutegravir, and vandetanib – can increase metformin concentration
-
Digoxin – sitagliptin may slightly raise digoxin levels; monitor appropriately
Always inform your healthcare provider about all the medications, supplements, or herbal products you are taking.
