Product Introduction
Galvus Met 50mg/850mg Tablet is a prescription medicine designed to help manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It combines two powerful anti-diabetic agents—vildagliptin and metformin—that work together to keep blood sugar levels under control. By maintaining healthy glucose levels, this treatment lowers the risk of long-term complications like kidney damage, vision problems, nerve issues, heart disease, and stroke.

This medication can be prescribed on its own or alongside other diabetes treatments. For best results, it should be taken with a balanced diet, regular exercise, and a healthy lifestyle. The dosage will be tailored by your doctor depending on your blood sugar levels and other ongoing treatments. Taking Galvus Met with meals minimizes stomach upset and ensures optimal absorption.

How Galvus Met 50mg/850mg Tablet Work
This medicine combines two active ingredients:

Metformin (Biguanide): Reduces glucose production in the liver, slows sugar absorption in the intestines, and improves the body’s insulin sensitivity.
Vildagliptin (DPP-4 inhibitor): Boosts insulin secretion from the pancreas while reducing hormones that raise blood sugar levels.

Together, these actions deliver comprehensive blood sugar control.
