Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?
A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Galvus 50 Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.
Composition of Galvus 50 Tablet
Galvus 50 Tablet contains Vildagliptin 50 mg. It belongs to the DPP-4 inhibitor (Gliptin) class of medicines.

Benefits of Galvus 50 Tablet
- In Type 2 diabetes
- Galvus strengthens the body's own after-meal insulin response, so sugar spikes after eating are smaller. It does this without pushing sugar too low on its own and without causing weight gain.
How Galvus 50 Tablet works
Vildagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin levels (GLP-1 and GIP), leading to glucose-dependent insulin release and reduced glucagon secretion. This lowers blood glucose with a low risk of hypoglycaemia when not used with insulin or sulfonylureas.
How to take Galvus 50 Tablet
Take by mouth as prescribed, with or without food, usually once or twice daily depending on regimen. Continue diet and exercise; monitor blood sugar regularly. If combined with a sulfonylurea/insulin, hypoglycaemia precautions may be needed.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine may cause low blood sugar, particularly if you also take other diabetes medicines. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Side effects of Galvus 50 Tablet
Most side effects of Galvus are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
- Headache
- dizziness
- tremor
- nausea
- diarrhea
- constipation
- upper respiratory tract infection
- hypoglycaemia (more likely with sulfonylurea/insulin)
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
