Voglibose and Metformin Hydrochloride Tablets

Voglibose and Metformin Hydrochloride Tablets - Dulcomet V (0.2 and 0.3) is made up of two medications, Voglibose and Metformin. The group of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors includes Voglibose which works by preventing the digestive enzymes from dissolving complex sugars into simple sugars like glucose. This procedure stops the blood glucose levels from rising. The Biguanide family of drugs includes metformin, which has a non-pancreatic impact to lower serum glucose levels without boosting insulin production. Because it enhances the effects of insulin, it is often referred to as an "insulin sensitizer." Given that it does not result in hypoglycemia, the anti-diabetic medication metformin is regarded as being special (lowered blood sugar levels).

Indication and Usage

High blood sugar levels are brought on by the metabolic condition known as diabetes mellitus. It happens when the pancreas' beta cells, which create the hormone insulin, are unable to effectively break down glucose for energy production (insulin resistance), or when the organ located behind the stomach produces very little or no insulin.
