✅ Description:

Metform 850mg Tablet contains Metformin which belongs to the group of medicines called Anti-diabetic agents. It is used to manage type II diabetes mellitus when diet and exercise alone do not result in adequate blood sugar control.

Type II diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by abnormally high levels of glucose in the blood. It is caused due to inadequate production of a hormone called insulin (produced by the pancreas to metabolize glucose) in the body or due to inadequate sensitivity of body cells to the actions of insulin.

Metform 850mg Tablet works by making your body utilize more amount of circulating blood glucose. It is suitable for use both in adults and children (aged 10 years or older).

Along with the therapy, your doctor might ask you to make certain lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet, regular physical exercise, and quitting alcohol consumption.
