Intaglip-M Forte Tablet

Product Introduction
Intaglip-M Forte Tablet is a medicine that combines two active ingredients to help manage high blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. By keeping blood sugar under control, it lowers the chances of developing serious health problems related to diabetes, such as kidney damage, vision loss, and nerve issues. It may also reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Your doctor may prescribe Intaglip-M Forte Tablet alone or along with other medicines for diabetes. For the best results, it should be taken alongside a balanced diet and regular physical activity. The exact dosage will depend on your blood sugar levels, overall health, and other medications you may be taking. It is recommended to take this tablet with meals to minimize the risk of stomach upset. Taking it at the same time every day helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. Do not stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor. A proper lifestyle, including exercise and a healthy diet, plays a major role in managing diabetes effectively.

Some common side effects you may experience while using this medicine include nausea, headache, and acid reflux. In some cases, especially when used with other diabetes medicines like insulin or sulfonylureas, it can cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). It’s important to know the signs of low blood sugar and how to handle it promptly.

This medication may not be suitable for everyone. Inform your doctor if you have any history of kidney, liver, or heart problems, pancreatic issues, or if you consume alcohol regularly. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before starting this medicine.

How It Works
Intaglip-M Forte Tablet contains metformin and vildagliptin. Metformin helps lower glucose production in the liver, slows down glucose absorption from the digestive system, and makes the body more responsive to insulin. Vildagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, increases insulin release from the pancreas and decreases the release of hormones that raise blood sugar. Together, they effectively reduce both fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels.
