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. Decaglim-MV2 Tablet 15's prevents the blood glucose levels from rising to very high levels thus keeping your diabetes under control. Decaglim-MV2 Tablet 15's 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), Decaglim-MV2 Tablet 15's also helps to reduce your chance of having a heart attack or stroke.

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic or lifelong condition that affects the way your body processes glucose.

Due to this, the blood glucose level increases and causes symptoms such as frequent urination, increased thirst and increased hunger start. 

Decaglim-MV2 Tablet 15's is a combination of three antidiabetic drugs: Glimepiride, Metformin and Voglibose. Glimepiride, which is a 'sulfonylurea', acts by increasing the amount of insulin released by the pancreas.
