DRACETYL T 10S

About

DRACETYL T is an oral antidiabetic agent primarily used for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. While the specific active ingredient may vary by formulation, such medications typically work by improving the body's ability to utilize insulin, reducing glucose production by the liver, or stimulating insulin secretion from the pancreas. The goal of DRACETYL T is to help patients achieve and maintain optimal blood glucose levels, thereby reducing the risk of long-term complications associated with diabetes, such as cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, and nephropathy. It is often prescribed as an adjunct to diet and exercise, either as monotherapy or in combination with other antidiabetic drugs, to achieve comprehensive glycemic control.
