About this product

Overview

Wilda M 50/850 Tablet is a medication that combines two active ingredients: Vildagliptin and Metformin. It is used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus to help control blood sugar levels.

Description

Wilda M 50/850 Tablet is an oral medication available in tablet form. It combines vildagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, and metformin, a biguanide antidiabetic agent. Vildagliptin works by increasing the levels of incretin hormones, which stimulate the release of insulin and inhibit the release of glucagon, thereby reducing blood sugar levels. Metformin works by decreasing glucose production in the liver and improving insulin sensitivity in the body.

Uses

Wilda M 50/850 Tablet is prescribed for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient to control blood sugar levels. It helps to lower blood sugar levels after meals and throughout the day, thereby reducing the risk of complications associated with diabetes.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage of Wilda M 50/850 Tablet is individualized based on the patient’s medical condition, response to treatment, and other medications they may be taking. It is typically taken orally with meals to reduce gastrointestinal side effects. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and should not be crushed or chewed.

Precautions

Before taking Wilda M 50/850 Tablet, it is important to consider the following precautions:

  1. Kidney Function: Inform your healthcare provider if you have kidney problems or are undergoing dialysis, as dose adjustments may be necessary.
  2. Liver Function: Exercise caution if you have liver disease or impaired liver function, as metformin can affect liver function tests.
  3. Hypoglycemia: Monitor blood sugar levels regularly, as Wilda M 50/850 Tablet may increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels), especially when used in combination with other antidiabetic medications.
  4. Lactic Acidosis: Metformin, one of the components of Wilda M 50/850 Tablet, may rarely cause a serious condition called lactic acidosis. Seek medical attention if you experience symptoms such as weakness, tiredness, muscle pain, difficulty breathing, or stomach discomfort.

Side Effects

  1. Gastrointestinal disturbances such as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal discomfort.
