Description
Vilcret Plus 50/500mg Tablets – Vildagliptin & Metformin for Type 2 Diabetes
Vilcret Plus 50/500mg Tablets are a prescription oral antidiabetic medicine by Barrett Hodgson Pakistan, combining vildagliptin (50mg), a DPP-4 inhibitor, and metformin (500mg), a biguanide. This dual-action therapy is prescribed for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who require improved glycemic control beyond metformin alone.
Vildagliptin enhances insulin secretion from the pancreas after meals and suppresses excess glucagon, reducing post-meal blood sugar spikes. Metformin lowers glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity throughout the day. Together they provide complementary coverage for 24-hour blood sugar management.
This combination is also available in higher metformin strengths — see Vilcret Plus 50/850mg and Vilcret Plus 50/1000mg — allowing doctors to titrate metformin dose without changing the vildagliptin component.
