Actvilda M 50mg/500mg Tablet

Introduction to Actvilda M 50mg/500mg Tablet

Actvilda M 50mg/500mg Tablet is a combination medicine that helps manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It contains two active ingredients: Vildagliptin (50 mg) and Metformin (500 mg). These components work together to control blood sugar levels, especially when diet and exercise alone are not enough.

Vildagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases the levels of incretin hormones, helping the pancreas release insulin and reduce the amount of sugar produced by the liver. Metformin, on the other hand, is a biguanide that decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity in the body.

This tablet is usually prescribed as part of a comprehensive diabetes treatment plan. Regular use of Actvilda M, along with lifestyle modifications, can help reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications and improve overall glycemic control. Always take it as directed by your doctor. It is manufactured by Edoc Life Sciences.
