Active Ingredient / Composition

Metformin (500mg) + Voglibose (0.3mg)

What is Voglifin M 0.3 used for?

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (adjunct to diet and exercise) to improve glycaemic control
especially post‑meal blood glucose; used when control is inadequate with single therapy.

How Voglifin M 0.3 Works

Voglibose is an alpha‑glucosidase inhibitor that delays carbohydrate digestion and absorption in the intestine, reducing post‑prandial glucose spikes. Metformin decreases hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity, thereby lowering fasting and overall blood glucose.

Dosage & Directions

Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed. Typically taken with meals: voglibose is taken just before/with the first bite of food; metformin is usually taken with food to reduce stomach upset. Swallow whole with water; do not crush/chew unless advised.

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

Key Benefits

Lowers post‑meal blood sugar spikes
Improves overall glycaemic control (HbA1c)
Helps reduce fasting glucose via metformin
Supports insulin sensitivity
Useful in combination therapy for type 2 diabetes

Pregnancy

Consult doctor (generally use with caution; insulin is preferred in pregnancy; metformin may be used in select cases only under medical supervision).

Alcohol Interaction

Avoid (increases risk of lactic acidosis with metformin and may worsen hypoglycaemia).
