Acarboz 25 Tablet 10 contains acarbose (25 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Alpha-glucosidase inhibition: Acarbose blocks specific enzymes called alpha-glucosidases that are found in the small intestine. These enzymes normally break down complex carbohydrates and starches into simple sugars.

• Delayed carbohydrate digestion: By inhibiting these enzymes, acarbose significantly slows down the digestion of carbohydrates in your food. This prevents the rapid conversion of complex carbohydrates into glucose.

• Reduced glucose absorption: The medicine decreases the rate at which glucose is absorbed from your intestines into your bloodstream, helping to prevent sudden spikes in blood sugar levels after meals.

• Postprandial glucose control: By slowing down carbohydrate digestion and absorption, acarbose helps to maintain more stable blood glucose levels throughout the day, particularly after eating.

• Follow a diabetic meal plan that limits refined carbohydrates and sugars to help manage your blood glucose levels and improve the effectiveness of Acarboz 25 Tablet 10.

• Engage in regular physical activity as recommended by your doctor, as exercise helps your body use glucose more efficiently and supports better blood sugar control.
