Metformin + Vildagliptin
Information about Metformin + Vildagliptin
Metformin + Vildagliptin Uses
Metformin + Vildagliptin is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
How Metformin + Vildagliptin works
Metformin + Vildagliptin is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Metformin and Vildagliptin. Metformin is an anti-diabetic medication (biguanide). It works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from intestines and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Vildagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor which works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces both fasting and postmeal sugar levels. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.
Common side effects of Metformin + Vildagliptin
Nausea1a, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Stomach pain, Loss of appetite, Dizziness, Headache, Trembling, Metallic taste, Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level)
