Description
VIGLIPTIN 50mg Tablets are a vital prescription-only medication available at Gathimaini Pharmacy in Thika, Kenya, used for the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Each tablet contains Vildagliptin 50mg, an oral anti-diabetic agent belonging to the class of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. Vildagliptin works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas after meals and decreasing the production of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar levels. This dual action helps to effectively control both fasting and post-meal blood glucose levels. VIGLIPTIN 50mg is typically prescribed when diet and exercise alone, or other antidiabetic medications, are not sufficient to achieve adequate blood sugar control. It can be used alone or in combination with other diabetes medicines. Consistent use as prescribed by a healthcare professional is crucial for managing diabetes and preventing long-term complications. Common pack sizes are 10, 15, or 30 tablets.
