About Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet

Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet is an antidiabetic medicine used to treat Type II Diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or the body is unable to use insulin effectively. As a result, blood sugar levels become elevated.

Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet contains Dapagliflozin, Sitagliptin, and Metformin. It works by removing excess sugar from the body through urine, increasing the levels of certain natural substances that lower blood sugar when it is high, reducing sugar production by cells in the liver, and delaying sugar absorption from the intestines.

Take Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet as advised by your doctor. Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet may cause certain side effects such as vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain, headache and stomach upset. Most of these side effects do not need medical attention and resolve over time. If these side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Do not take Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet if you are allergic to any of its components. Inform your doctor about your medical history and the medicines you are taking, including herbs and supplements, before starting the treatment with Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet.

  • Sitagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that helps increase insulin release and decrease glucagon levels in the body, lowering blood sugar levels when they are high.
  • Dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, works by removing excess glucose through the urine, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
  • Metformin is a biguanide which reduces the amount of sugar produced by the liver and delays glucose absorption from the intestine.
  • It improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin, promoting better glucose uptake by muscles and tissues.
  • The combined effect of these three drugs offers multi-targeted control of blood sugar levels, especially in patients not controlled by single or dual therapy.
  • Oxramet-S XR 500 Tablet helps manage blood glucose levels and prevents diabetes-related complications, such as eye problems, nerve problems, and kidney impairment.
