Product introduction

Vildavan M 500 Tablet can be prescribed alone or together with other diabetes medications. All diabetes medicines work best when used along with a healthy diet and regular exercise. The dose you are given will depend on your condition, blood sugar levels, and what other medicines you are taking. Taking it with meals helps reduce the chances of developing an upset stomach.

It is important to stay on the diet and exercise program recommended by your doctor while taking this medicine. Your lifestyle plays a big part in controlling diabetes.

How Vildavan M Tablet works

Vildavan M 500 Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: metformin and vildagliptin. Metformin is an anti-diabetic medication (biguanide). It works by lowering glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from the intestines, and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Vildagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces both fasting and post-meal sugar levels. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.

Quick tips

  • Take it in addition to regular exercise and a healthy diet to lower levels of blood sugar.
  • Take it with food to lower your chance of having an upset stomach.
  • Inform your doctor about your diabetes treatment if you are due to have surgery under a general anesthetic.
  • Tell your doctor immediately if you experience any deep or rapid breathing, persistent nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain, as Vildavan M 500 Tablet may cause a rare but serious condition called lactic acidosis, which is an excess of lactic acid in the blood.
  • Your doctor may check your kidney and liver function before starting treatment and regularly thereafter. Inform your doctor if you develop symptoms such as abdominal pain, fatigue, loss of appetite, darkened urine, or yellowing of the eyes or skin (jaundice).

Frequently asked questions

Vildavan M 500 Tablet is a combination of two anti-diabetic drugs: metformin and vildagliptin. Metformin is an anti-diabetic medicine and belongs to the class of biguanides. It lowers the glucose production in the liver, delays glucose absorption from the intestines, and increases the body's sensitivity to insulin. Vildagliptin inhibits the enzyme DPP4 and increases the release of insulin from the pancreas. This combination is not advised for patients below 18 years of age.
Yes, it is safe to use Vildavan M 500 Tablet if you take it for the prescribed duration and according to the dosage advised by the doctor. However, despite taking the prescribed dosage, you might experience common side effects like nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach upset, headache, nasal congestion, sore throat, respiratory tract infection, or hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) in combination with insulin or sulfonylurea. Inform your doctor if you experience any persistent problems while taking this medicine.
The use of Vildavan M 500 Tablet does not usually cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) alone. But it could occur if there is insufficient supplementation of calories while taking this medicine. Symptoms of hypoglycemia include nausea, headache, irritability, hunger, sweating, dizziness, fast heart rate, and feeling anxious or shaky. The symptoms are more likely to be noticed if you miss or delay your food, drink alcohol, over-exercise, or take any other antidiabetic medicine along with it. So, regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is important. It is recommended to always carry glucose tablets, honey, or fruit juice with you.
Yes, the use of Vildavan M 500 Tablet can cause nausea and vomiting. In case of vomiting, drink plenty of water or other fluids by taking small, frequent sips. Talk to your doctor if vomiting persists and you notice signs of dehydration, like dark-colored and strong-smelling urine and a low frequency of urination. Do not take any other medicine without speaking to a doctor.
The use of Vildavan M 500 Tablet should be avoided in patients with known allergies to any of the components or excipients of this medicine.

Yes, the use of Vildavan M 500 Tablet can lead to lactic acidosis. It is a medical emergency that is caused by increased levels of lactic acid in the blood. It is also known as MALA (metformin-associated lactic acidosis). It is a very rare side effect associated with the use of metformin, and therefore, it is avoided in patients with underlying kidney disease, elderly patients, or those who take large amounts of alcohol. Symptoms of lactic acidosis may include muscle pain or weakness, dizziness, tiredness, the feeling of cold in arms and legs, difficulty in breathing, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, or slow heart rate. If you have these symptoms, stop taking Vildavan M 500 Tablet and immediately consult your doctor.
Yes, the use of Vildavan M 500 Tablet can cause vitamin B12 deficiency with long-term use. It interferes with the absorption of vitamin B12 in the stomach. If untreated, it may cause anemia and nerve problems.
