Volibo M 0.3/500mg is used as an anti-diabetic drug. It is used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps control sugar levels in the blood of people with diabetes. It combines two salts, i.e., metformin hcl 500 mg and voglibose 0.3. The combination of voglibose and metformin is indicated as a second-line therapy for treating type 2 diabetes when diet, exercise, and treatment with single anti-diabetic agents do not control blood sugar levels. 

Voglibose delays glucose (sugar) absorption, breaking complex sugars into simple sugars such as glucose. This prevents the rise of blood glucose levels immediately after meals. Metformin reduces glucose levels without increasing insulin secretion. It is also called an insulin sensitizer as it increases the effects of insulin hormones. Metformin is unique as it does not cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels).   

The molecular mechanism of metformin hcl is not completely understood. Multiple potential mechanisms of action are proposed, such as inhibition of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, inhibition of glucagon-induced elevation of cyclic adenosine, etc.

Metformin hcl er 500 mg tablet, also known as Glucophage, reduces the amount of glucose the liver releases into the bloodstream. It also increases the body’s glucose use and improves insulin sensitivity.

What is Volibo M 0.3/500 mg?

Volibo M 0.3/500 mg is a combination medication used to manage blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. It contains two active ingredients: Voglibose (0.3 mg) and Metformin (500 mg). Volibo M 0.3/500 mg is an effective combination therapy for managing type 2 diabetes. It should be used as part of a comprehensive diabetes management plan under the guidance of a healthcare provider, who can monitor for side effects, adjust dosages as necessary, and ensure safe and effective use.

  1. Voglibose (0.3 mg): Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that helps control blood sugar levels, particularly postprandial (after-meal) glucose spikes. It works by inhibiting the alpha-glucosidase enzyme in the small intestine, slowing down the breakdown and absorption of complex carbohydrates into glucose. This results in a slower, more gradual increase in blood sugar levels after eating.
  2. Metformin (500 mg): Metformin is a biguanide that helps lower blood sugar levels in several ways. It reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver, improves the sensitivity of muscle cells to insulin (enhancing glucose uptake), and decreases glucose absorption from the intestines. Metformin is one of the most commonly prescribed medications for type 2 diabetes because of its effectiveness and safety profile.

How does Volibo M 0.3/500 mg work?

  • Metformin: Works on overall glucose metabolism by reducing liver glucose production and increasing peripheral glucose uptake, thus lowering both fasting and overall blood glucose levels.
