Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10

Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10 is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults who need improved blood sugar control. The combination helps enhance insulin release while reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver. It supports stable glucose levels when diet and exercise alone are not enough.

Here are some steps to follow when taking Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10:

• 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.

Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10 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.

• Keep Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place.
• Avoid direct exposure to sunlight, heat, and moisture.
• Ensure the medicine is out of reach of children.
• Always check and respect the expiry date before taking the medicine.

• Incorporate foods rich in fibre and low in sugar into your diet to manage blood glucose levels effectively, aiding Vidaglo M 50/500 Tablet 10's function.
• Regular physical activity, such as a brisk 30-minute walk daily, can improve insulin sensitivity and improve diabetes management.
