Medicinal Benefits:

Ozomet VG 2 Tablet contains Glimepiride, Metformin and Voglibose. Glimepiride, which is a 'sulfonylurea', acts by increasing the amount of insulin released by the pancreas. Metformin, which is a 'biguanide', acts by lowering the glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from the intestines and increasing the body's response to insulin. Voglibose, which is an 'alpha-glucosidase inhibitor' prevents the breakdown of complex sugars into simple sugars such as glucose in the intestine. Ozomet VG 2 Tablet prevents the blood glucose levels from rising to very high levels thus keeping your diabetes under control. Ozomet VG 2 Tablet also helps to prevent serious complications of diabetes such as kidney damage (Diabetic Nephropathy), blindness (Diabetic Retinopathy), loss of sensation in your hands and feet (Diabetic Neuropathy), Ozomet VG 2 Tablet also helps to reduce your chance of having a heart attack or stroke. Being a combination of three drugs, Ozomet VG 2 Tablet  reduces the need to take multiple pills and hence makes it easier to remember to take the drugs.
