Gliptagreat M 1000 Tablet contains two active ingredients that work together to manage type 2 diabetes:

• Metformin (1000 mg): This component works by decreasing the production of glucose by your liver and reducing glucose absorption from the food you eat. Furthermore, it enhances insulin sensitivity which results in improved uptake and use of glucose by your body. The benefit is that it does not cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) or excessive insulin levels (hyperinsulinemia).

• Vildagliptin (50 mg): This ingredient falls under a class of medicines known as dipeptidyl peptidase4 (DPP4) inhibitors. Its function is to increase the levels of incretins, natural substances that assist in controlling blood sugar by enhancing insulin release after meals. Moreover, vildagliptin helps to reduce the amount of sugar produced by your liver.
