Canazin 300 Tablet 10's is used to treat type 2 diabetes in people whose sugar levels are too high and cannot be controlled by diet and exercise alone. It contains Canagliflozin, which works by inhibiting the reabsorption of glucose in the body, resulting in an increase in glucose excretion through urine. The removal of excessive glucose helps to lower the blood sugar level. Additionally, it also lowers high blood pressure due to increased diuretic effect (water loss) and reduced body weight due to a reduction in glucose availability. In some cases, you may experience urinary tract infections, changes in urination (urinating more frequently or in larger amounts, urgent need to urinate, need to urinate at night), constipation, feeling thirsty, nausea, dizziness, and nausea. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.
