Mpride V2 Tablet SR

Product Overview
Mpride V2 Tablet SR is a medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It belongs to the class of anti-diabetic drugs and contains a combination of medicines designed to help regulate blood sugar levels.

This tablet should be taken with or just before meals, consistently at the same time each day to ensure the best results. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate dosage based on how well your blood sugar is controlled and may adjust it as necessary.

Even if you start feeling better or your blood sugar levels improve, it is important to continue taking this medicine as prescribed. Stopping the treatment abruptly without consulting your doctor can cause your blood sugar to rise again, potentially leading to serious complications such as kidney damage, vision loss, nerve damage, or even limb amputation. Alongside medication, following a healthy diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a proper weight are crucial for managing diabetes effectively.

Side Effects
Common side effects associated with Mpride V2 Tablet SR include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and loss of appetite. It’s important to recognize the signs of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), such as sweating, dizziness, headaches, and shaking, and know how to respond appropriately. To avoid low blood sugar episodes, maintain regular meal times and carry a quick source of glucose, like fruit juice or sugary snacks.

Alcohol consumption should be avoided as it can increase the likelihood of low blood sugar. Other possible side effects include changes in taste, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, headaches, swelling (edema), blurred vision, bone fractures, and respiratory infections. Some patients may also experience weight gain while on this medication.

Who Should Not Use It
Mpride V2 Tablet SR is not suitable for people with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or severe kidney or liver problems. Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disease, as this medication may not be appropriate. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only use this medicine after consulting their doctor. Regular monitoring of blood sugar, liver function, and blood counts may be advised during treatment.

Uses
This medication is prescribed for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Benefits
Mpride V2 Tablet SR helps control high blood sugar by slowing down the digestion of carbohydrates in the intestines, reducing the sharp rise in blood sugar after meals, and promoting the removal of excess sugar through urine. Maintaining blood sugar within target levels helps reduce the risk of serious diabetes complications, including damage to kidneys, eyes, nerves, and limbs.

Additionally, for patients with type 2 diabetes who have cardiovascular disease, this medicine may help lower the risk of death related to heart problems. When combined with a proper diet and exercise, Mpride V2 Tablet SR supports a healthier lifestyle and protects long-term health. Continuous use as prescribed is essential for sustained benefits.

Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and often subside as your body adjusts to the medication. Common reactions include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, hypoglycemia, and loss of appetite. If side effects persist or cause concern, consult your healthcare provider.

How to Use
Take Mpride V2 Tablet SR as directed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole without chewing or breaking it. It should always be taken with food to minimize gastrointestinal discomfort.

Mechanism of Action
This medication contains three anti-diabetic agents: glimepiride, metformin, and voglibose. They work through different pathways to improve blood sugar control when single or dual therapies are insufficient. Glimepiride stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas to lower blood glucose. Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver, slows glucose absorption from the intestines, and improves insulin sensitivity. Voglibose inhibits enzymes that break down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, preventing sharp increases in blood sugar after meals.

Precautions

• Alcohol: Avoid drinking alcohol as it increases the risk of low blood sugar.

• Pregnancy: Use only under medical advice; risks and benefits will be assessed.

• Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor; there is a possibility of the drug passing into breast milk.

• Driving: Be cautious when blood sugar levels are unstable, as this may impair your ability to drive.

• Kidney: Not recommended for patients with kidney disease, especially severe cases. Always consult your doctor before use.

• Liver: Use with caution in patients with liver problems; dose adjustments may be necessary. Avoid in severe liver disease.

Missed Dose
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is nearly time for your next dose. Do not double up doses to make up for a missed one.
