Glivo M 0.3 offers a multi-pronged approach to managing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, especially for patients who struggle with post-meal (post-prandial) hyperglycemia.
-
Gliclazide (80 mg): A sulfonylurea that stimulates the pancreas to secrete more insulin.
-
Metformin (500 mg): Works by suppressing glucose production in the liver and improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin.
-
Voglibose (0.3 mg): An alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that slows down the breakdown and absorption of carbohydrates in the small intestine.
The inclusion of 0.3 mg Voglibose makes this formulation particularly effective at smoothing out glucose fluctuations throughout the day. This triple therapy helps in achieving target HbA1c levels and significantly reduces the risk of long-term diabetic complications affecting the heart, kidneys, and eyes.
