Galvus 50 mg contains the active ingredient of the DPP-4 inhibitor vildagliptin, which treats blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is often prescribed with diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Vildagliptin is found to be effective in HbA1c reduction. It can be used in managing type 2 diabetes:
– As monotherapy
– Combined with metformin, sulphonylurea, or a thiazolidinedione, diet, exercise, and a ingle antidiabetic agent fail to bring adequate glycaemic control.
– Combined with metformin and sulphonylurea, diet, exercise, and the above dual therapy with these agents do not adequately control blood sugar.
– In combination with insulin, when diabetes is present, diet, exercise, and a stable insulin dose do not adequately control blood sugar.
