Salt Composition
Metformin 500.00 mg + Voglibose 0.20 mg
Product Description
VOLIBO M 0.2MG is a fixed dose combination medication that combines Voglibose and Metformin. Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that helps control blood sugar levels by delaying the breakdown of carbohydrates in the intestine, thereby reducing postprandial glucose spikes. Metformin, a biguanide, works by reducing glucose production in the liver, increasing glucose uptake by muscle cells, and improving insulin sensitivity. This combination is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus and helps in maintaining optimal glycemic control. VOLIBO M 0.2MG offers a comprehensive approach to managing diabetes by targeting different mechanisms involved in glucose metabolism.
