How VILDAPRIME M100/1000 SR TAB Works
Vildagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormones (GLP-1, GIP), thereby increasing insulin release and reducing glucagon in a glucose-dependent manner. Metformin reduces hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity; the SR form provides prolonged action with better GI tolerance.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
