Galvus Met 50/850 mg 60 tablets – Galvus Met for blood sugar regulation
Galvus Met 50/850 mg (Galvus Met 50/850 mg) is an effective medication used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults. The medication contains a combination of two active substances: Vildagliptin and Metformin Hydrochloride, working together to help lower blood sugar levels and improve the body's response to insulin.
What is Galvus Met?
Galvus Met tablets are a combined medication belonging to the group of oral antidiabetics and contain:
Vildagliptin
Metformin Hydrochloride
This medication is used to help regulate blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes, especially when adequate control is not achieved with Metformin or other medications alone.
How does Galvus Met work?
The two active substances in Galvus Met 50/850 mg work via different mechanisms to regulate blood sugar:
Vildagliptin belongs to the DPP-4 inhibitors class, helping the pancreas produce more insulin when needed, and reducing glucagon secretion that raises blood sugar.
Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves the body's use of insulin, helping to lower post-meal blood sugar levels.
This combination helps improve blood sugar control and reduce the risk of diabetes complications such as cardiovascular diseases.
