dispensing drug combos for diabetes
January 2011
The new Kombiglyze XR (saxagliptin/metformin) is putting the spotlight on dispensing drug combos for diabetes.
Kombiglyze XR is Onglyza and metformin in one tab. Think of it as Janumet's cousin...they're both combos of metformin with a "gliptin."
These "2-in-1" combos help with adherence...especially since many diabetes patients end up on several meds to reach blood sugar goals.
