PPG Met 0.3 Tablet is taken orally.

PPG Met 0.3 Tablet consists of two active ingredients:

• Metformin (500 mg): As a biguanide anti-diabetic medicine, metformin works in three different ways: it decreases the production of glucose in your liver; it reduces the absorption of glucose in your gut; and it improves insulin sensitivity by increasing the uptake and use of glucose in your body's peripheral tissues.

• Voglibose (0.3 mg): Voglibose belongs to a group of medicines called alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, which act by slowing down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates from your gut. This leads to a reduction in post-meal glucose levels as it inhibits the conversion of complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars.

• Store PPG Met 0.3 Tablet in a cool, dry place at room temperature, below 30°C.

• Avoid direct sunlight and moisture.

• Keep the medicine securely out of the reach of children.

• Ensure the medicine is consumed before the expiry date mentioned on the packaging.

• Maintain a balanced diet low in simple sugars and high in fiber to assist in managing your blood sugar levels, enhancing the efficacy of PPG Met 0.3 Tablet.

• Regular physical exercise such as brisk walking or cycling can help to improve insulin sensitivity and control your blood glucose levels. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
