Each of the active components of Zita DM 10mg/20mg/1000mg Tablet SR works in different ways to help control blood sugar levels. Dapagliflozin lowers blood sugar by causing the kidneys to get rid of more glucose in the urine. Teneligliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor which works by increasing the release of insulin from pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. Metformin is an antidiabetic medication (biguanide). It works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from intestines and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin.
