Carbophage XR 500 Tablet contains metformin (500 mg), which works on the body in several ways:

• Reduces liver glucose production: Metformin decreases the amount of glucose your liver makes, helping to lower your blood sugar levels.
• Decreases intestinal glucose absorption: This medicine reduces how much glucose your intestines absorb from the food you eat, preventing sharp rises in blood sugar after meals.
• Improves insulin sensitivity: Metformin helps your body's cells respond better to insulin, allowing them to take in and use glucose more effectively.
• Enhances glucose uptake: The medicine increases the movement of glucose from your bloodstream into muscle cells, where it can be used for energy instead of remaining in your blood.

• Maintain a balanced diet low in refined carbohydrates and sugars to help control your blood glucose levels. Choose complex carbohydrates like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables instead.
