Istavel 100 mg is a prescription anti-diabetic medicine used to lower the blood sugar level in people with Type 2 diabetes. It contains the active substance Sitagliptin, which belongs to a class of drugs known as DPP-4 inhibitors. The class of drugs effectively reduces blood sugar, which is too high because of Type 2 diabetes. Your doctor may prescribe this Sitagliptin preparation alone or in combination with certain other anti-diabetic agents such as metformin, insulin, glitazones, or sulphonylureas. In general, the dose usually depends on the individual’s body’s requirement. However, it is always important to follow the medicinal treatment with a diet and exercise plan. In Type 2 diabetes, the patient’s body does not make enough insulin or when the insulin that your body produces does not work the way it should. Your body can also form too much sugar. This cause builds up of sugar in the blood, leading to serious health complications like kidney disease, blindness, amputation, and heart disease.
Always take Istavel 1000 mg exactly as your doctor advised you. You must check with your doctor if you are unsure how and when to use the medicine.
The recommended dose of Istavel 100 mg once daily; a patient can take it before or after consuming food. Tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, as your doctor may prescribe a lower dose. If you have kidney disease, please let your doctor know that patients may need a lower dose. Your doctor may ask you to take it before or after consuming food. Diet and exercise can help your body use more efficiently; therefore, it is important to follow a strict diet regimen and exercise recommended by the doctor during the entire treatment.

Look out for persistent pain in the abdomen that might reach you through to your back with or without nausea and vomiting. Common side effects of the medicine are low blood pressure, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting. Other side effects include diarrheal, stomachache, drowsiness, and constipation. Some patients may experience different stomach discomfort when starting a combination drug, including metformin and Sitagliptin. People taking Sitagliptin in combination with sulfonylurea and metformin may experience low blood sugar and constipation. If you develop any of these side effects, talk to your doctor straight away. Rarely, this oral anti-diabetic agent can cause hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) because it does not work when your blood sugar is low. Â
