How Sgltr M Tablet works
Sgltr-M Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines. Remogliflozin Etabonate is an anti-diabetic medication (sodium glucose-dependent renal transporter 2). It works by removing excess sugar from your body through urine. Metformin is another anti-diabetic medication (biguanide).
