Zilda-M 500 Tablet is taken orally.

Zilda-M 500 Tablet is a combination of two active ingredients:

• Metformin (500 mg): This ingredient helps lower blood glucose levels in three ways. Firstly, it reduces the production of glucose in your liver. Secondly, it decreases the absorption of glucose from your intestine. Lastly, it improves the sensitivity of your body tissues to insulin, promoting better glucose uptake and usage.

• Vildagliptin (50 mg): As a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, vildagliptin works by increasing the secretion of insulin and reducing the levels of glucagon in your body. Both of these actions are performed depending on your blood sugar levels, ensuring a balanced and controlled response to blood glucose regulation.

• Store Zilda-M 500 Tablet in its original packaging to protect it from light, air, and moisture.

• The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and 25°C.

• Keep this medicine safely out of reach of children.

• Follow a balanced diet with a good mix of fibre-rich foods such as whole grains, lentils, fruits, and vegetables. This aids in managing your blood sugar levels.

• Regular physical activity is crucial. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise like brisk walking or cycling every day to enhance insulin sensitivity and help control type 2 diabetes.
