Dapahenz-SM combines three antidiabetic medicines that work together to control blood sugar:

Metformin reduces glucose production by the liver, decreases glucose absorption from the intestine, and improves insulin sensitivity.
Sitagliptin increases incretin hormone levels, helping the pancreas release more insulin after meals while reducing glucose production by the liver.
