Sixtin 2.5mg Tablet

Generic: Saxagliptin

Type: Tablet

Pack Size: 10 Pcs

Sixtin 2.5mg Tablet is prescribed for the treatment of type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) when diet and exercise alone are insufficient, and metformin cannot be administered due to contraindication or intolerance. In cases where diabetes is not adequately controlled by insulin or other oral antidiabetic medications (such as metformin, thiazolidinediones, or sulfonylureas), or a combination of these, saxagliptin can be included in a dual or triple medicine combination. It is used in conjunction with a balanced diet and regular exercise to enhance blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes.
