Starvog 0.2 Tablet 10 contains voglibose (0.2 mg) which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Alpha-glucosidase inhibition: Voglibose inhibits a group of enzymes called alpha-glucosidase in the digestive tract. These enzymes play a vital role in transforming complex carbohydrates into simple sugars.

• Reduction of blood sugar spikes: By slowing down the digestion of carbohydrates and hence their absorption into the bloodstream, voglibose helps manage post-meal spikes in blood sugar levels.

• Competitive reversible inhibition: Voglibose specifically targets enzymes like sucrase, maltase, isomaltase, and glucoamylase present in the brush border area of your small intestine. By competitively and reversibly inhibiting these enzymes, it delays carbohydrate digestion even further.

• Store Starvog 0.2 Tablet 10 at room temperature (not exceeding 30°C).

• Keep the medicine in a tightly closed container to protect it from moisture and light.

• Place it in a location out of the reach of children.

• Always check the expiry date before use.

• Follow a balanced diet low in simple sugars to help manage your blood sugar levels. This means limiting your intake of sweets, sugary drinks, and processed foods.

• Regular exercise can also aid in controlling your blood sugar levels. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate activity, like brisk walking or cycling, most days of the week. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
