Justoza M 10/1000 Tablet ER contains dapagliflozin 10mg and metformin 1000mg


Dapagliflozin works by inhibiting the reabsorption of glucose in the kidney, increasing glucose excretion in the urine and reducing glucose levels in the blood


Metformin decreases the production of glucose in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, allowing the body to better utilize insulin and reduce blood sugar levels


Dapagliflozin and metformin work to lower blood sugar levels and improve glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes. They help to regulate the amount of glucose in the blood, reducing the risk of long-term complications associated with uncontrolled blood sugar levels
