Frequently asked
Can I stop taking the medication when I feel better?
No, you should not stop taking Tagipmet XR 50mg/1000mg on your own just because you feel better. Type 2 diabetes is often a long-term condition, and feeling better usually means the medicine is helping keep your blood glucose under control—it does not necessarily mean the diabetes has resolved. Stopping it suddenly may cause your blood sugar levels to rise again.

Warnings & interactions
Warnings:
Use only as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Monitor blood glucose levels regularly as directed. Risk of lactic acidosis (rare but serious) may increase, especially in people with significant kidney impairment, severe dehydration, or certain medical conditions. May cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), particularly when used with insulin or other medicines that lower glucose. Seek medical advice if experiencing severe abdominal pain, unusual weakness, breathing difficulties, persistent vomiting, or signs of dehydration.
Avoid If:
History of serious allergy or hypersensitivity to sitagliptin, metformin, or any tablet ingredients. Severe kidney impairment or conditions associated with increased risk of lactic acidosis. Type 1 diabetes or treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. Use only under medical guidance during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or before procedures involving certain contrast dyes.
Interactions:
Insulin and sulfonylureas (e.g., glimepiride, gliclazide): may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Alcohol: may increase the risk of metformin-associated lactic acidosis. Contrast dyes used in imaging procedures: may require temporary stopping of metformin in certain situations. Other medicines affecting kidney function: may increase metformin-related risks. Always inform healthcare providers about all prescription medicines, supplements, and herbal products being used.
