Qosmet 50/500 Tablets

Qosmet 50/500 Tablets is a tablet from Wilshire Laboratories Ltd whose active ingredient is Sitagliptin + Metformin, a two-in-one medicine for type 2 diabetes. Doctors use it for type 2 diabetes. This pack contains 10 tablets.

What is Qosmet 50/500 Tablets used for?

Qosmet 50/500 Tablets combines two diabetes medicines in a single tablet for adults with type 2 diabetes whose blood sugar is not well controlled by diet, exercise and one medicine alone. Taking both together can simplify a daily routine and lead to steadier sugar readings.

How does Qosmet 50/500 Tablets work?

Sitagliptin helps the body release more insulin after meals and reduces the sugar the liver releases. Metformin lowers the amount of sugar made by the liver and helps the body respond better to its own insulin. The two actions complement each other, so blood glucose falls more than with either one alone.
