Vildagliptin

Uses

Vildagliptin is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is prescribed alongside diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes.

How it Works

How Vildagliptin works Vildagliptin is an antidiabetic medication that increases the release of insulin from the pancreas while decreasing the hormones that elevate blood sugar levels. This action helps to lower both fasting and post-meal sugar levels.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Vildagliptin include headache, dizziness, hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level), nausea, weight gain, and tremors.

Expert Advice

  • Vildagliptin should be taken at the same time every day to help you remember to take it.
  • It may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) when used with other antidiabetic medicines, alcohol, or if you delay or miss a meal.
  • Always carry some sugary food or fruit juice with you in case you experience hypoglycemia symptoms, such as:
    • Cold sweats
    • Cool, pale skin
    • Tremor
    • Anxiety
  • Be cautious while driving or operating machinery until you know how Vildagliptin affects you.
  • Your doctor may check your kidney and liver function before starting treatment and regularly thereafter.
  • Inform your doctor if you develop symptoms such as:
    • Abdominal pain
    • Fatigue
    • Loss of appetite
    • Darkened urine
    • Yellowing of the eyes or skin (jaundice)
  • You should continue to exercise regularly, eat a healthy diet, and take your other diabetes medicines along with this medicine.
  • Chances of weight gain and low blood sugar are lower compared to other diabetes medicines.
  • Inform your doctor if you notice joint pains or develop symptoms such as:
    • Stomach pain
    • Nausea
    • Vomiting
  • Monitor your blood sugar level regularly while taking this medicine.

Frequently asked questions

When should I take Vildagliptin?
Vildagliptin can be taken before, with, or after meals. If prescribed once daily, take it in the morning. For twice daily dosing, take the first dose in the morning and the second in the evening.
Does Vildagliptin cause weight gain?
No, Vildagliptin does not cause weight gain. In fact, it may promote weight loss by increasing satiety and delaying stomach emptying, which helps reduce hunger.
Does Vildagliptin cause hypoglycemia?
Yes, Vildagliptin may cause hypoglycemia, but the risk is lower compared to other antidiabetic medications. It rarely causes hypoglycemia, even in individuals at risk, such as the elderly or those on insulin. The risk increases when taken with other antidiabetic drugs.
Is Vildagliptin the same as sitagliptin?
No, Vildagliptin and Sitagliptin are not the same, although they belong to the same drug class and have similar mechanisms for lowering blood glucose levels.
