Source-linked reading points
- For example, 50 mg/1,000 mg means 50 mg sitagliptin and 1,000 mg metformin HCl per tablet. It is not a comparable 1,050 mg strength or two times of day.
- The label requires swallowing whole and says not to break, cut, crush or chew. The site explains that text only; it does not select an individual's time, frequency, tablet count or alternative dosage form.
- The boxed warning covers metformin-associated lactic acidosis, and the label also requires review of kidney function, dehydration, alcohol, surgery and iodinated contrast. People aged 65 or older and those with several conditions or medicines should especially bring the full medicine list and planned investigations for review.
- Severe weakness, breathing difficulty, persistent vomiting, marked altered awareness, severe abdominal pain or another acute serious concern requires local emergency help with every medicine pack. Do not wait for a webpage to decide interruption or make-up use.
