Description
Vilcret Plus 50/850mg Tablets – Vildagliptin & Metformin for Type 2 Diabetes
Vilcret Plus 50/850mg Tablets are a prescription combination antidiabetic by Barrett Hodgson Pakistan containing vildagliptin (50mg) and metformin (850mg). The higher 850mg metformin dose provides stronger hepatic glucose suppression, making it suitable for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who need greater glycemic control than the 500mg formulation provides.
Vildagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, increases meal-stimulated insulin secretion and decreases glucagon levels to reduce post-prandial glucose spikes. Metformin, a biguanide, reduces the liver's glucose output and enhances peripheral insulin sensitivity for stable fasting blood sugar levels.
For lower metformin requirements see Vilcret Plus 50/500mg; for maximum metformin dose see Vilcret Plus 50/1000mg.
