Gluxit 5 Tablet works in the body due to its active ingredient, Dapagliflozin (5 mg). This ingredient impacts your body in the following ways:

• Inhibits SGLT2: Dapagliflozin blocks a protein in your kidneys called sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2). This protein is important because it helps your body reabsorb glucose from your urine back into your bloodstream.

• Increases Glucose Excretion: By blocking SGLT2, Dapagliflozin prevents glucose from being reabsorbed back into your bloodstream. Instead, the glucose is excreted in your urine. This action effectively reduces the amount of sugar in your blood.

• Store Gluxit 5 Tablet at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep the medicine in its original packaging until it's time to take it.

• Protect the tablet from moisture and direct sunlight.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Ensure you use the medicine before its expiry date.

• Keep a balanced diet rich in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. This helps control your blood sugar levels, which is crucial when managing type 2 diabetes.

• Regular exercise is also important. Physical activity can help your body use insulin more efficiently, further controlling blood sugar. Make sure to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
