How it works

Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that delays carbohydrate digestion and absorption in the intestine. This reduces the rise in blood glucose after meals and helps improve overall glycaemic control.

Warnings & precautions

Not for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Use with caution in gastrointestinal disorders (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal obstruction, chronic intestinal disease) and in significant liver impairment. Risk of hypoglycaemia increases when combined with insulin or sulfonylureas—if low sugar occurs, treat with glucose/dextrose (not sucrose) because absorption of sucrose is delayed. Consult doctor in elderly and if you have kidney/liver disease.
