Lipaglyn Tablet 10's

Lipaglyn Tablet 10's is an insulin sensitiser used to treat diabetic dyslipidaemia/hypertriglyceridemia in type-2 diabetic patients, which is not controlled by statins (lipid-lowering agents) alone. Lipaglyn Tablet 10's has both lipid and glucose-lowering effects in a single molecule; thereby, helps lower blood triglycerides and blood glucose levels. Diabetic dyslipidaemia is characterised by increased triglyceride levels, low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. This condition is common in people with type-2 diabetes mellitus.
 
Lipaglyn Tablet 10's contains ‘Saroglitazar’, which has dual Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR)-α/γ agonist having strong PPAR-alpha effect and moderate PPAR-gamma effect. PPAR-alpha reduces the synthesis and secretion of triglycerides, increases lipolysis and hepatic oxidation of fatty acids. It also induces an increase in the synthesis of HDL cholesterol. PPAR-gamma reduces the metabolic burden on the liver, muscle and promotes glucose utilisation. It improves post-absorptive insulin-mediated suppression of hepatic glucose output. Thereby, Lipaglyn Tablet 10's helps in lowering blood triglycerides and blood glucose levels.
 
You are advised to take Lipaglyn Tablet 10's for as long as your doctor has prescribed it, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as stomach inflammation, nausea, vomiting, weakness, chest discomfort, dizziness, and fever.

Lipaglyn Tablet 10's is an insulin sensitiser used to treat diabetic dyslipidaemia/hypertriglyceridemia in type-2 diabetes, which is not controlled by statins alone. Lipaglyn Tablet 10's has demonstrated reduction of triglycerides (TG), Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, non-High-Density Lipoprotein (non- HDL) cholesterol, Very Low-Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, and an increase in HDL cholesterol. It has also shown glycemic indices by lowering the fasting plasma glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin in diabetic patients. Lipaglyn Tablet 10's has dual Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR)-α/γ agonist having strong PPAR-alpha effect and moderate PPAR-gamma effect. PPAR-alpha reduces the synthesis and secretion of triglycerides, increases lipolysis and hepatic oxidation of fatty acids. It also induces an increase in the synthesis of HDL cholesterol. PPAR-gamma reduces the metabolic burden on the liver, muscle and promotes glucose utilisation, and improves post-absorptive insulin-mediated suppression of hepatic glucose output. Lipaglyn Tablet 10's has both lipid and glucose-lowering effects in a single molecule; this helps in lowering blood triglycerides and blood glucose levels as well. It also helps in improving insulin resistance. Lipaglyn Tablet 10's offers a superior safety profile, greater efficacy on lipid regulation, and excellent glycaemic control.

Diabetic dyslipidaemia/hypertriglyceridemia: Diabetic dyslipidaemia, also known as hypertriglyceridemia, is characterised by increased triglyceride levels, low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and decreased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. This condition is common in people with type-2 diabetes mellitus. It is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients. Lifestyle, genetics, obesity, consumption of high saturated/trans fat, low thyroid levels, and kidney disease could be the cause of dyslipidaemia. Symptoms of diabetic dyslipidaemia include chest pain/tightness, indigestion, heartburn, dizziness, palpitations, shortness of breath, cold sweats, nausea, and vomiting.
