Oxramet IR 5/1000 mg
Oxramet IR 5/1000 mg combines Dapagliflozin and metformin to improve blood glucose control in adults with type 2 diabetes. It is available as a film-coated tablet for oral administration. It is especially effective when treatment with metformin alone is insufficient in controlling blood glucose levels. Your doctor may prescribe this oral antidiabetic agent as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycaemic control in adults with Type 2 diabetes when treatment with Dapagliflozin and metformin is appropriate. Oxramet extended-release tablet is not recommended for patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus.
How to use Oxramet IR 5/1000 mg?
The dose of Oxramet is based on the patient’s current treatment. Administer once daily with the evening meal. Swallow the tablet whole; never cut, or chew it. Do not exceed the daily recommended dose of the medicine. No dose adjustment is needed in patients with mild renal impairment.
What precautions should be taken?
Oxramet IR should not be given to patients with severe renal impairment, diabetic ketoacidosis, and a history of serious hypersensitivity to Dapagliflozin or metformin. There are no adequate studies on pregnant women. Use during pregnancy only when if the benefits are more than the risks. It is recommended either discontinue Oxramet IR or discontinue nursing. A higher incidence of side effects has been reported in geriatric patients. Also, patients with renal impairment should exercise caution. Lactic acidosis (build-up of lactic acid in the bloodstream) may occur due to metformin. The risk is even high in patients with dehydration, hepatic impairment, renal insufficiency, and acute congestive heart failure. Oxramet extended-release tablet should generally be avoided in hepatic impairment. Before initiating the treatment with this combination medicine, correct hypotension (low blood pressure) in the elderly, patients on diuretics and patients with renal impairment. Carefully monitor for signs and symptoms. Metformin may lower vitamin B12 levels in your body. Monitor and treat if indicated by your doctor.
