What is Aglipt M Tablet?::: Aglipt M Tablet is a combination of two anti-diabetic drugs: metformin and vildagliptin. Metformin is an anti-diabetic medicine and belongs to the class of biguanides. It lowers the glucose production in the liver, delays glucose absorption from the intestines, and increases the body's sensitivity to insulin. Vildagliptin inhibits the enzyme DPP4 and increases the release of insulin from the pancreas. This combination is not advised for patients below 18 years of age.| Is it safe to use Aglipt M Tablet?::: Yes, it is safe to use Aglipt M Tablet if you take it for the prescribed duration and according to the dosage advised by the doctor.

Inform your doctor if you experience any persistent problems while taking this medicine.| Can the use of Aglipt M Tablet cause hypoglycemia?::: The use of Aglipt M Tablet does not usually cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) alone. But it could occur if there is insufficient supplementation of calories while taking this medicine. Symptoms of hypoglycemia include nausea, headache, irritability, hunger, sweating, dizziness, fast heart rate, and feeling anxious or shaky. The symptoms are more likely to be noticed if you miss or delay your food, drink alcohol, over-exercise, or take any other antidiabetic medicine along with it.

Aglipt M Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: metformin and vildagliptin. Metformin is an anti-diabetic medication (biguanide). It works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from the intestines, and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Vildagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces both fasting and post-meal sugar levels. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.
