Metformin + Miglitol

Uses

Metformin enhances the body's ability to utilize insulin, decreases glucose absorption from the intestine, and reduces glucose production in the liver. Miglitol inhibits the intestinal enzymes responsible for breaking down complex sugars into simple sugars, such as glucose. This action helps prevent blood glucose levels from rising significantly after meals.
