WHAT GALVUS MET
IS USED FOR
Galvus Met is available as tablets. Each
Galvus Met tablet contains two active
substances: vildagliptin and metformin
hydrochloride. Both substances belong to
a group of medicines called “oral
antidiabetics”.
Three dosage strengths are available
(vildagliptin/metformin hydrochloride)
50 mg/500 mg, 50 mg/850 mg and 50
mg/1,000 mg.
Galvus Met is a medicine used to treat
type 2 diabetes. It helps to control the
level of sugar in the blood. It is
prescribed as an adjunct to diet and
exercise to improve control over body
sugar levels
- as a first diabetes treatment in patients
whose diabetes is not adequately
controlled by diet and exercise alone;
- in patients who have already received
treatment with vildagliptin and
metformin hydrochloride together as
separate tablets;
- or whose diabetes is not adequately
controlled with metformin hydrochloride
or vildagliptin alone, in combination
with other medicinal products from the
treatment of diabetes, including insulin
when these do not provide adequate
glycemic control.
HOW GALVUS MET WORKS
Galvus Met works by making the
pancreas produce more insulin and less
glucagon (effect of vildagliptin) and also
by helping the body to make better use of
the insulin it produces (effect of
metformin hydrochloride). Galvus Met
helps to control the blood sugar level.
It is important that you continue to
follow the diet and/or exercise
recommended to you while you are on
treatment with Galvus Met.
Ask your doctor if you have any
questions about why this medicine has
been prescribed for you.
