Zomelis Dm 500 mg Tablet contains Metformin hydrochloride 500 mg (as modified-release/extended-release). It belongs to the Biguanide class of medicines.
Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and decreases intestinal glucose absorption. It also improves insulin sensitivity, helping the body use insulin more effectively and lowering blood sugar without usually causing hypoglycaemia when used alone.
Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed, preferably with meals to reduce stomach upset. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew (especially if modified/extended-release). Dose is individualized based on blood sugar and tolerability.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
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.
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.
Most side effects of Zomelis Dm are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately 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.

Not for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Risk of lactic acidosis (rare but serious)—higher in severe kidney disease, severe liver disease, alcohol misuse, dehydration, severe infection, hypoxia/heart failure. Kidney function should be checked before and during therapy; dose adjustment/avoid in renal impairment as per doctor. Temporarily stop before iodinated contrast procedures and major surgery as advised. Monitor for vitamin B12 deficiency with long-term use. Seek care if you develop deep/rapid breathing, persistent vomiting, severe weakness, abdominal pain, or unusual sleepiness.

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