Introduction About GLUCOBAY 25MG TABLET
GLUCOBAY 25MG TABLET is used to manage non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (diabetes mellitus type 2) when a restricted diet alone or restricted diet in combination with other sugar lowering drugs do not work well enough. It contains Acarbose which belongs to the group of medicines called Anti-diabetic agents. Acarbose helps in slowing down the digestion of carbohydrates (sugars) which lower down the abnormally high blood sugar levels which rises after each meal.
Along with GLUCOBAY 25MG TABLET your doctor might advise you to do some lifestyle changes and cut down your sugar intake by restricting the diet. Prior to the management your doctor may take up several blood tests to better assess your condition.
