helpFrequently Asked Questions

What is Vilpower-M 500 Tablet?

expand_more

Vilpower-M 500 Tablet is a combination of two anti-diabetic drugs: metformin and vildagliptin. Metformin is an anti-diabetic medicine and belongs to the class of biguanides. It lowers the glucose production in the liver, delays glucose absorption from the intestines, and increases the body's sensitivity to insulin. Vildagliptin inhibits the enzyme DPP4 and increases the release of insulin from the pancreas. This combination is not advised for patients below 18 years of age.

Is it safe to use Vilpower-M 500 Tablet?

expand_more

Yes, it is safe to use Vilpower-M 500 Tablet if you take it for the prescribed duration and according to the dosage advised by the doctor. However, despite taking the prescribed dosage, you might experience common side effects like nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach upset, headache, nasal congestion, sore throat, respiratory tract infection, or hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) in combination with insulin or sulfonylurea. Inform your doctor if you experience any persistent problems while taking this medicine.
