Important Warnings

Prescription-only antidiabetic. Risk of hypoglycaemia (higher if meals are skipped, with excess exercise, alcohol, or other antidiabetics); carry glucose/sugar. Metformin can rarely cause lactic acidosis—seek urgent care for severe weakness, muscle pain, breathing difficulty, abdominal discomfort, or drowsiness; avoid in severe kidney impairment and use caution in liver disease/heart failure. Temporarily stop metformin before/after iodinated contrast studies and major surgery as advised. Voglibose may cause gas/diarrhoea; use caution in inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal obstruction, or chronic intestinal disorders. Regular monitoring of kidney function, HbA1c, and vitamin B12 (long-term metformin) is advised.
