About the Product:
Tenepride 20 Tablet is an antidiabetic medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps to control blood sugar levels in combination with a healthy diet and regular exercise. By controlling blood sugar, it also reduces the risk of serious complications of diabetes, such as kidney damage, eye problems (including blindness), and other cardiovascular issues.
Tenepride 20 Tablet is often prescribed when diet, exercise, and other diabetes medicines alone are not sufficient to control blood glucose levels. It can be taken on its own or in combination with other diabetes medications. Regular use of this tablet, along with lifestyle changes, will help you achieve better control over your blood sugar and prevent complications in the long term.
Salt Composition/Key Ingredients:
Each Tenepride 20 Tablet contains Teneligliptin (20mg), which works by stimulating insulin release from the pancreas and reducing blood sugar-raising hormones in the body.
How to Use:
- Take Tenepride 20 Tablet as prescribed by your doctor.
- Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush, or break it.
- The tablet can be taken with or without food. It is best to take it at the same time each day for consistency and better effectiveness.
- Do not stop taking this medication unless your doctor advises you to do so.
Restrictions:
- Kidney, Heart, or Pancreatic Issues: Before starting Tenepride, inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney disease, heart disease, or any pancreatic issues.
- Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before using Tenepride.
- Alcohol Consumption: Limit your alcohol intake as it can increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) when taking this medication.
- Other Medications: Certain medications may interfere with how Tenepride works. Inform your doctor of all the medicines, supplements, or over-the-counter drugs you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
- Regular Monitoring: Your doctor may monitor your kidney function and blood sugar levels regularly to ensure the medication is working as expected.
Side Effects:
Tenepride 20 Tablet is generally well-tolerated, but like any medication, it may cause side effects. Common side effects include:
- Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar): Symptoms may include dizziness, lightheadedness, sweating, fainting, or dry mouth.
- Constipation
- Dizziness
- Headache
- Diarrhea
- Increased body temperature
If you experience symptoms of hypoglycemia, it is important to carry sugar or glucose tablets to raise your blood sugar levels quickly. If any side effects persist or become bothersome, contact your doctor for further advice.
How It Works:
Tenepride 20 Tablet contains Teneligliptin, an antidiabetic drug that helps manage blood sugar by working in two ways:
- Increases insulin release from the pancreas: This helps the body use the sugar in the bloodstream more effectively.
- Reduces hormones that raise blood sugar levels: By decreasing certain hormones that contribute to high blood glucose, Teneligliptin helps lower both fasting and post-meal sugar levels.
This combination of actions makes Tenepride an effective option for people with type 2 diabetes who need additional support in managing their blood sugar levels.
