Composition

Metformin (500 Mg) + Vildagliptin (50 Mg)

Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 is used to manage type 2 diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels and improving insulin sensitivity, helping with better glucose regulation. This combination medication falls under the class of oral anti-diabetic agents.

It is also prescribed for improved control of blood sugar levels in adults who have type 2 diabetes and cannot manage their condition via diet and exercise alone. The medicine plays a significant role in reducing both fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels, thus lowering the risk of serious long-term complications such as heart disease, kidney damage, nerve problems, and vision loss.

Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications you're currently on. If you experience any side effects while taking this medication, notify your doctor immediately. Remember to continue taking this medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor to achieve the best results.

Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 is used to manage Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Here are some steps to follow when taking Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15:

Swallow the whole tablet with a glass of water.
Avoid splitting, crushing or chewing the tablet.
This medicine should be taken regularly as prescribed by your doctor to maintain steady blood glucose control.
Consult your doctor before altering the dosage or stopping the medication.

Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 is taken orally.

Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 may have the following side effects:

Diarrhoea
Nausea
Vomiting
Abdominal pain
Appetite loss
Upper respiratory tract infections
Nasopharyngitis: Inflammation of the throat or nose due to a common cold.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some simple tips to manage a couple of common side effects:

Diarrhoea: Try taking this medicine with food, as it can help ease this symptom.
Nausea and vomiting: Taking this medicine after meals might help reduce these symptoms.

Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 comprises two key components:

Vildagliptin (50 mg): This component selectively inhibits an enzyme called dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). DPP-4 breaks down natural substances called incretins that help control insulin secretion based on glucose levels in your body. Therefore, by inhibiting DPP-4, vildagliptin increases and extends incretin activity, resulting in better regulation of insulin secretion and lower glucose levels with minimal risk of hypoglycaemia.
Metformin (500 mg): This ingredient reduces sugar production in the liver, decreases sugar absorption in the gut, and improves insulin sensitivity, which enhances glucose uptake and utilization by tissues like muscles.
These two components work together effectively to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce liver-produced glucose, enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion, and manage blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding women should exercise caution while taking this medicine. Consult your doctor before starting on Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 to understand the potential risks and benefits.

Alcohol

Avoid excessive alcohol consumption whilst taking Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 as it may increase the risk of lactic acidosis, a potential side effect of metformin.

Liver

This medicine is not recommended if you have severe liver problems. If you have mild to moderate liver issues, discuss them with your doctor before starting on this medication.

Kidney

If you have a history of kidney problems, caution is advised before using Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15. It's a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

This medicine may cause side effects affecting your ability to drive or operate machinery. Ensure you know how this medication affects you before undertaking such activities.

Allergy

Do not take Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 if you are allergic to metformin, vildagliptin, or any other ingredients. Always inform your doctor about any known allergies beforehand.

Children

This medicine is not intended for use in children under the age of 18 years. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take this medication under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Caution is advised if patients are above 70 years of age. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Daily Dose

Your daily dose of Galvamark Met 50mg/500mg Tablet 15 should be as your doctor prescribes.
