Composition of In Control 500 mg Tablet

In Control 500 mg Tablet contains Metformin (500mg). It belongs to the Biguanide class of medicines.

Uses of In Control 500 mg Tablet

This medicine is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Benefits of In Control 500 mg Tablet

In Type 2 diabetes
In Control lowers the amount of sugar your liver releases and helps your body use its own insulin, so blood sugar stays in a steadier range through the day. Keeping sugar controlled over the years protects the eyes, kidneys, nerves and heart from the damage diabetes causes.

How In Control 500 mg Tablet works

Metformin lowers blood sugar by reducing the amount of glucose your liver releases and by helping your muscles respond better to your own insulin. It does not force your pancreas to make more insulin, which is why it rarely causes low blood sugar on its own.

How to take In Control 500 mg Tablet

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush or break it unless your doctor has told you to. Take it with or just after food. Taking it at about the same time each day helps you remember. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

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 can cause a dangerous build-up of acid in the blood, with vomiting, severe weakness and laboured breathing. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of In Control 500 mg Tablet

Most side effects of In Control are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Nausea
  • Loose motions
  • Stomach pain
  • Metallic taste
  • Loss of appetite
  • Flatulence

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.

Warnings and precautions

Stomach upset is common in the first two weeks and usually settles; taking it with food helps. Tell your doctor before any surgery or a scan that uses contrast dye — this medicine is usually stopped for a short time around them. Stop and seek urgent care if you develop deep rapid breathing, severe weakness, muscle pain or vomiting with cold clammy skin. This is rare but serious. Long-term use can lower vitamin B12, so your doctor may check it from time to time.

Do not take In Control if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with severe kidney disease, severe liver disease, or an acute illness causing dehydration. Not for people who have had diabetic ketoacidosis.

Interactions with other medicines

Tell your doctor about water tablets, steroids, and any contrast dye scan. Alcohol increases the risk of the rare acid build-up and should be limited.

How to store In Control 500 mg Tablet

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.

Quick tips for In Control 500 mg Tablet

  • Take it with or just after food to reduce stomach upset.
  • Keep taking it even when your sugar readings look normal.
  • That is the medicine working.
  • Continue your diet and physical activity; this medicine works alongside them, not instead of them.

People taking In Control are often asked to check these from time to time. Your doctor decides which and how often.
