Vildagliptin 50 mg: Vildagliptin is an oral antidiabetic medication that belongs to the class of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. It helps lower blood sugar levels by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4, which degrades incretin hormones that regulate insulin secretion. Metformin Hydrochloride 1000 mg: Metformin is a biguanide antidiabetic drug that reduces glucose production in the liver, increases insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues, and improves glucose uptake by muscles.

It is typically taken orally twice daily with meals or as directed by a healthcare professional. While taking the extended-release tablet, part of the tablet may pass into your stool after your body has absorbed the medicine. This is normal and nothing to worry about.

Store the medication at room temperature, away from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight.

Vildagliptin increases insulin secretion and suppresses glucagon release in a glucose-dependent manner by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4, which leads to improved glycemic control. Metformin primarily works by reducing hepatic glucose production, enhancing insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues, and improving glucose uptake by muscles, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
