Composition

Metformin (500 Mg)

D Bay 500 MG Tablet Sr 10 is used to manage type 2 diabetes by reducing glucose production in the liver, improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin, and decreasing glucose absorption from the intestines, helping to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

This medication aids in maintaining healthy blood glucose levels by reducing liver glucose production, decreasing glucose absorption from the gut, and enhancing insulin sensitivity. This helps the body use glucose more efficiently.

Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications. If you notice any side effects while taking this medicine, notify your doctor immediately.

D Bay 500 MG Tablet Sr 10 is used to treat type 2 diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels and preventing complications. It is also used for managing polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women, supporting hormonal balance, regulating menstrual cycles, and improving insulin sensitivity.

Avoid crushing, chewing, or breaking the tablet.
Do not exceed the recommended dose without consulting your doctor.
It's crucial not to stop taking this medicine without discussing with your doctor.

Abdominal discomfort
Metallic taste: This means experiencing an unusual or off taste in the mouth, often described as bitter or metallic.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of D Bay 500 MG Tablet Sr 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

D Bay 500 MG Tablet Sr 10 contains metformin (500 mg), which works on your body as follows:

Reduces Liver Glucose Production: Metformin curbs glucose production in your liver by blocking gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis.
Enhances Insulin Sensitivity: Metformin improves the function of insulin in your body. This helps move more glucose into your muscles and fat tissues, reducing the amount of glucose in your blood.
Decreases Glucose Absorption: It slows down the absorption of glucose from your gut into your bloodstream, further helping to maintain healthier blood sugar levels.
This combined action helps manage type 2 diabetes effectively by controlling high blood sugar levels.
