What is Voglimac GM 1 Hd used for?

Type 2 diabetes mellitus: to improve blood glucose control in adults when diet and exercise are insufficient; helps reduce post-meal (postprandial) and fasting blood sugar.

How Voglimac GM 1 Hd Works

Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that delays carbohydrate digestion and absorption in the intestine, lowering post-meal glucose spikes. Metformin (ER) reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, helping lower fasting and overall blood sugar.

Dosage & Directions

Take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken with meals; voglibose works best when taken just before/with the first bite of food. Swallow the extended-release tablet whole; do not crush or chew. Regularly monitor blood glucose as advised.

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