Vildagliptin (50mg)
Active composition
Vildagliptin inhibits DPP-4, leading to increased levels of incretin hormones, which stimulate insulin secretion and decrease glucagon levels.
Medical applications
Galvus 50mg Tablet contains Vildagliptin 50mg, an oral antidiabetic medication used to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Vildagliptin belongs to the class of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, which work by enhancing the levels of incretin hormones. These hormones increase insulin secretion from the pancreas in response to meals and decrease the release of glucagon, thereby helping to regulate blood sugar levels effectively. Galvus is typically prescribed when diet and exercise alone are insufficient to control blood glucose and can be used as monotherapy or in combination with other antidiabetic agents such as metformin. It is important to take Galvus exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional, usually once or twice daily with or without food. Common side effects may include headache, dizziness, or mild gastrointestinal discomfort, but serious adverse effects are rare. Patients with a history of pancreatitis or severe kidney impairment should use this medication cautiously and under strict medical supervision. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels and periodic assessment of kidney function are recommended during treatment. Galvus 50mg Tablet offers an effective option for managing type 2 diabetes, helping to maintain better blood sugar control and reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.
