Product Details

Jentin Met 50/1000Mg Tablets are a combined formulation of Sitagliptin and Metformin, designed to offer comprehensive management for type 2 diabetes. Sitagliptin boosts insulin release and reduces glucagon levels, working in harmony with Metformin to regulate both basal and postprandial blood glucose levels. This combination aims to improve glycemic control effectively while minimizing the risk of hypoglycemia.
