Improving glycaemic control and reducing the risk of long-term complications of diabetes

Here's how you should use Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15:

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
Avoid crushing, chewing or splitting the tablet.
Take this medicine at meal times to minimise gastrointestinal side effects and optimise its efficacy.
Always follow your doctor's instructions on when and how to take this medicine.

Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 is taken orally.

Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 may have the following common side effects:

Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
Abdominal pain
Flatulence: A term for gas in your digestive system, which might cause discomfort or bloating.
Dyspepsia: Also known as indigestion that can cause discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

The Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 contains two active ingredients:

Voglibose (0.3 mg): Classified as an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, voglibose acts on intestinal enzymes responsible for breaking down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. By slowing down this process, it reduces and delays the absorption of glucose after a meal, thus lowering post-meal blood sugar levels.
Metformin (500 mg): As a biguanide class anti-diabetic agent, metformin primarily functions to decrease glucose production in the liver (a process known as gluconeogenesis). Furthermore, it improves insulin sensitivity which helps increase the uptake and utilisation of glucose in peripheral tissues while decreasing absorption of glucose from the intestine.

Pregnancy

It's not recommended to take Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 during pregnancy unless absolutely necessary. If you're pregnant or planning a pregnancy, consult your doctor before starting this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Avoid using Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 while breastfeeding as it is uncertain if the ingredients pass into breast milk. Talk with your doctor about potential risks and alternatives.

Alcohol

Alcohol may influence the effect of this medication on lactate metabolism. It's wise to limit alcohol consumption while taking this medicine.

Liver

If you have liver problems, proceed with caution when using this tablet. This medicine should be used with care in patients with hepatic impairment.

Kidney

If you've been diagnosed with kidney issues, use Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 cautiously. This medicine is warned against use for severe renal impairment. Regular monitoring of kidney function is advised.

Using Machines & Driving

No specific precautions are required when driving or operating machinery while taking Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15, but always stay alert to how you feel and consult a doctor if you experience any unusual symptoms.

Allergy

If you're allergic to metformin or voglibose, or any other ingredient in Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15, avoid taking this medication. Always inform your doctor about your allergies before starting any new medication.

Children

Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 is not recommended for children and adolescents as its safety and efficacy have not been established for this age group.

Older Patients

Older patients might need to take Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 under medical supervision because they could be more susceptible to its side effects, particularly if they have liver or kidney issues. Regular monitoring of kidney function is recommended for elderly patients. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 can interact with the following medicines:

Cationic Medicines like amiloride, digoxin, and ranitidine that are eliminated by renal tubular secretion. They may interact with metformin, one of the ingredients in Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15, leading to changes in their elimination from the body.
Digestive Enzyme Preparations such as amylase and pancreatin can reduce voglibose's effectiveness by enhancing carbohydrate digestion.

Drug-Food Interactions

Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 does not have any known interactions with specific foods.

Metabolic Acidosis: Conditions causing acute or chronic metabolic acidosis, including diabetic ketoacidosis, can be worsened by Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15.
Hepatic Impairment: The tablet should be used carefully in patients with liver disease as it can affect the metabolism of metformin, one of its components.
Congestive Heart Failure: Patients requiring pharmacological treatment for congestive heart failure need to use Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 with caution due to potential interactions.

Daily Dose

You should take Cetapin V 0.3mg Tablet 15 daily as recommended by your doctor. Your doctor's prescription will depend on your individual health condition and how you respond to the medicine. Always follow the prescribed dosage and never change it without consulting your doctor. For more specific information, refer to the packaging.

Over Dose
