Description
Metliptin 50/850mg Tablet — Vildagliptin + Metformin for Type 2 Diabetes
Metliptin 50/850mg Tablet is a combination of Vildagliptin 50mg and Metformin HCl 850mg, used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. The 850mg metformin strength offers an intermediate dose suitable for patients who require stronger glycaemic control than the 500mg combination but without the maximum 1000mg dose.
Vildagliptin (DPP-4 inhibitor) enhances the body's natural incretin response, stimulating insulin release and suppressing glucagon after meals. Metformin reduces liver glucose production and improves cellular insulin sensitivity. Together, they deliver sustained blood sugar reduction with a low risk of hypoglycaemia.
Indications

- Patients requiring step-up from 500mg to 850mg metformin combination
- Adjunct to diet and exercise for glycaemic control
