The invention described herein relates to oral dosage form therapies for treating metabolic disorders using combinations of inhibitors of SGLT1 and SGLT2. In such dosage forms, SGLT1 is effective in the intestinal lumen, and is either not absorbed, or poorly absorbed, while the SGLT2 inhibitor inhibits sugar reabsorption in the kidney by inhibiting SGLT2 activity. Metabolic disorders treated by combined SGLT1 and SGLT2 oral dosage forms include disorders associated with abnormal accumulation of liver lipids, which may also be copresent with hyperglycemia. Combinations of SGLT1 and SGLT2 inhibitors are contemplated herein, particularly combinations
An oral dosage form comprising:
The method of claim 11, wherein the metabolic disease is diabetes mellitus, or metabolic syndrome, or dumping syndrome, or (post bariatric hypoglycemia) and/or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and/or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
