PAKAFYT 200MG TAB 10s
Pakafyt tablets for oral administration contain sotagliflozin, a sodium-glucose
cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. It lowers blood glucose (blood sugar) levels.
Sotagliflozin works by slowing and reducing the absorption of glucose from
food, and by increasing the amount of glucose that is passed out in urine.
Together, these actions help to lower the increased amount of glucose in the
blood that occurs in patients with diabetes.
