How Wovamet Tablet works

Wovamet 500mg/200mg Tablet is a combination of Metformin and Alpha Lipoic Acid. It works by improving blood sugar control and supporting metabolic balance in Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Metformin reduces excess glucose production in the liver and improves the body’s response to insulin, helping glucose to be utilized more effectively. Alpha lipoic acid provides antioxidant support and helps reduce oxidative stress associated with diabetes, while also supporting nerve health. Together, they help maintain better glycemic control and support overall metabolic function.
