Hi..Thanks for using healthcare magic
Lesuride is Levisulpride which usually gives as a pro-kinetic for dyspepsia and bowel motility problems.These problems are very common with diabetic patients.It is a safe drug.
Losar-H is a anti-Hypertensive(blood pressure) tablet.Active ingredients are Losartan and Hydrochlorothiazide.Good choice in diabetic patient.Losartan comes under the group called Angiotensin Receptor blocker and Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic.
Nexito 5 contains Escitalopram which is an antidepressant.
Pioz-MF contains pioglitazone and Metformin .Both are diabetic tablets.Pioglitazone should be used very carefully In view of pioglitazone...
thank you
