Xigduo Information

Xigduo (Dapagliflozin Propanediol Monohydrate/Metformin Hydrochloride) is a prescription medication used to manage type 2 diabetes. In this chronic condition, the body either resists insulin or doesn't produce enough of it, leading to high blood sugar and resultant damage to vital organs. Xigduo is a combination medication typically used in conjunction with dietary changes and lifestyle modifications such as increased exercise and physical activities. One of its active components, Dapagliflozin, may help lower the risk of hospitalization in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus who also have heart failure. It can potentially reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death in individuals with established heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. It may also help slow the decline of kidney function in adults with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease.

Its active ingredients are dapigliflozin and metformin hydrochloride, which belong to the classes of oral hypoglycemic agents, namely sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and biguanides, respectively. Dapigliflozin lowers blood glucose by blocking the sodium-glucose cotransporter in the kidneys, thereby reducing glucose reabsorption and increasing urinary glucose excretion. Metformin works by decreasing hepatic glucose production, improving insulin sensitivity, and reducing intestinal glucose absorption. This dual mechanism helps control blood sugar levels, with additional benefits such as potential weight loss and cardiovascular protection.

While clinical studies show that Xigduo effectively improves glycemic control in type 2 diabetes, it is not recommended for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. It should also not be used in life-threatening complications of diabetes known as diabetic ketoacidosis.
