Product Details
Startbose-M 0.2 Tablet is prescribed for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It combines two active ingredients: Voglibose and Metformin. Voglibose belongs to a group of medications called alpha-glucosidase inhibitors. It works by slowing down the absorption of glucose in the intestines. This is achieved by inhibiting enzymes that break down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars like glucose, thereby preventing a sudden spike in blood sugar levels after meals. Metformin, on the other hand, is classified as a biguanide. It helps lower blood glucose levels through a non-pancreatic mechanism—meaning it does not stimulate insulin secretion. Instead, it improves the body's sensitivity to insulin, enhancing its effectiveness in regulating blood sugar. Due to this action, Metformin is often referred to as an insulin sensitizer. Uniquely, it helps manage blood sugar without causing hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), and in most cases, it does not lead to weight gain. Together, Voglibose and Metformin offer a complementary approach to effectively control blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
