Xigduo Xr 5/1000Mg 60 Tablets
DESCRIPTION
Xigduo XR 5 mg / 1000 mg is an oral combination antidiabetic medication formulated to help improve glycemic control, lower HbA1c levels, and provide metabolic support in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It pairs two complementary, non-overlapping therapies: Dapagliflozin (5 mg), a selective Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, and Metformin Hydrochloride Extended-Release (1000 mg), a biguanide that decreases hepatic glucose synthesis and increases peripheral insulin sensitivity, packaged in a box containing 60 extended-release tablets.
Key Benefits

-
Supports modest weight loss and beneficial blood pressure reductions alongside lifestyle management.
-
