Brief Summary  

This study is designed to generate local Indian safety evidence for Dapa/Saxa 10 mg/5 mg FDC as per local health regulatory request. The study objectives are to describe the adverse events profile and efficacy of Dapa/Saxa fixed dose combinations in Indian T2DM patients. Both dapagliflozin and saxagliptin are approved in India for clinical use as individual therapy for managing T2DM patients. This study is to provide safety data when both molecules are administered as FDC formulation. This is a single arm study and no control group is planned.
