Product introduction

Rositus M Tablet should be taken in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. It must be taken with food to avoid stomach upset. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose. Overdose may lead to low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).

Some people may develop common side effects like nausea, loss of appetite, taste changes, stomach pain, diarrhea, edema (swelling), weight gain, bone fracture, blurred vision, and respiratory tract infection.

How Rositus M Tablet works

Rositus M Tablet is a combination medicine used to manage type 2 diabetes by helping control blood sugar levels in different ways. Metformin works by reducing the amount of sugar produced by the liver and improving the body’s response to insulin, helping it use sugar more effectively. Rosiglitazone helps the body become more sensitive to its own insulin by improving how cells respond to it, especially in muscle and fat tissue. Together, they help lower blood sugar levels, improve insulin function, and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.

Quick tips

It can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) when used with other antidiabetic medicines, alcohol or if you delay or miss a meal.
Always carry some sugary food or fruit juice with you in case you experience hypoglycemic symptoms such as cold sweats, cool pale skin, tremor, and anxiety.
Your doctor may check your liver function regularly. Inform your doctor if you develop symptoms such as abdominal pain, loss of appetite, or yellowing of the eyes or skin (jaundice).
