Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's

Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's is used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus. The detailed uses of Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's are as follows:

• Type 2 Diabetes Management: Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's is primarily prescribed to help manage blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
• Improving Glycemic Control: Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's works by stimulating insulin secretion in response to meals, which helps in maintaining better overall glycemic control for patients with diabetes.
• Reduced Risk of Hypoglycemia: Unlike some other diabetes medications, Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's is less likely to cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) when taken alone, making it a safer option for some patients.

• Take Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's exactly as directed by your doctor, either with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
• Do not crush, chew, or break the medicine, as this can interfere with how the medication works.
• Finish the entire course of treatment, even if you start feeling better, to ensure the infection is fully treated.
• Stopping the medication early or adjusting the dose without consulting your doctor can lead to the infection not being completely cleared and may cause resistance.

• Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's is used to treat type 2 diabetes in people 18 years and older.
• It is used when diet and exercise are not enough on their own, or when you cannot use another diabetes medicine, or when the other drugs are not enough to control or maintain your blood sugar levels.
• Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's promotes glycemic control via several mechanisms, including insulin secretion, slowing gastric emptying, and reducing postprandial glucagon secretion.
• Changes to diet and exercise are often combined with this medication.

• It is recommended not to take Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's if you are allergic to any of its components.
• You should inform your doctor if you get eye problems, such as changes in vision, during treatment with this medicine, as the Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's may lead to complications of diabetic eye disease (retinopathy).
• When taking this medication, you may feel nauseous, sick (vomiting), or have diarrhoea. These adverse effects may result in dehydration (loss of fluids). You must consume enough water to avoid dehydration, especially if you have kidney issues. If you have any questions or concerns, consult your doctor.
• If you have significant and ongoing stomach pain, consult a doctor immediately, as this could be a sign of an inflamed pancreas (acute pancreatitis).
• Avoiding alcohol is recommended to rule out any risk of lactic acidosis or other complications.
• Do not take more than the recommended dose of medicine, as it can cause undesirable effects.
• Be alert for signs of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), such as sweating, dizziness, dry mouth, dry skin, fast heartbeat, shivering, intense thirst, or frequent urination. If you experience any of these symptoms, take honey or sugar candies right away.

• Eat at regular intervals. Do not take a long gap between meals or snacks.
• Monitor your blood sugar level regularly, especially when there are a lot of fluctuations.
• Invest in at least 150 min of moderate-intensity physical activity and 15 minutes of exercise every week.
• Lose weight gradually to achieve a healthy body mass index (18.5 to 24.9).
• Replace refined carbohydrate-containing foods with whole-grain foods. Increase fruits, vegetables and other fibre-enriched foods in your diet.
• Reduce saturated fat foods such as chips, crisps, pastries, biscuits, and samosas.
• Choose omega-3 fatty acid-containing oils for daily cooking.
• Do not take stress as it may elevate your blood sugar level. You may adopt stress management techniques like mindfulness, yoga, or meditation to control stress-related blood sugar changes.
• Opt for low-fat dairy products (low-fat yoghurt, fat-free milk, cheese, etc.).
• Avoid drinking alcohol while on Sitakraft-100 mg Tablet 15's. It increases the risk of hypoglycaemia (a decrease in blood sugar which might be fatal in some cases) and lactic acidosis (when the lactic acid increases in the body, which impacts various organs).
• Try to quit smoking and reduce your intake of carbohydrate-rich food like potatoes, rice, mangoes, bread, sugar, etc.
