Tenepride M 1000 Tablet contains two active ingredients:

Teneligliptin (20 mg): This component plays a role in controlling blood sugar by:

• Inhibiting DPP-4: Teneligliptin inhibits an enzyme called DPP-4, which typically breaks down incretins, hormones that control insulin secretion.

• Increasing Incretin Levels: By inhibiting DPP-4, teneligliptin increases the levels of incretins, leading to increased insulin release and decreased glucagon levels, thus lowering blood sugar levels.

Metformin (1000 mg): This component works in several ways to lower blood glucose levels:

• Reducing Sugar Production: Metformin decreases the production of glucose in your liver.

• Increasing Insulin Sensitivity: It improves your body's sensitivity to insulin, promoting more efficient uptake and use of glucose.

• Slowing Sugar Absorption: It also slows down the absorption of sugars from your intestines.

• Store Tenepride M 1000 Tablet at room temperature, ideally between 15°C and 30°C.

• Protect the medicine from light and moisture to maintain its efficacy.

• Make sure the tablets are kept out of reach of children.

• Always use the medication before its expiry date.

• Consistently monitor your blood glucose levels and adopt a balanced diet that is low in sugar and high in fibre. This can help manage your type 2 diabetes effectively alongside your Tenepride M 1000 Tablet regimen.

• Regular physical activity such as walking, cycling or swimming can improve insulin sensitivity and help lower blood glucose levels. Ensure you incorporate some form of exercise into your daily routine.
