About Peribite 50 mg Tablet
Peribite 50 mg Tablet belongs to a class of anti-diabetic drugs called alpha-glucosidase inhibitors used to treat type 2 diabetes, especially in patients whose blood sugar levels are not controlled by diet and exercise alone. Peribite 50 mg Tablet may be used alone or in combination with other medicines. Type 2 diabetes is a chronic (long-lasting) condition that affects the way our body processes glucose. People with type 2 diabetes either do not produce enough insulin or the insulin produced is unable to perform its function in the body (insulin resistance). Middle-aged or older individuals are most likely to suffer from type 2 diabetes, so it is also known as adult-onset diabetes.
Peribite 50 mg Tablet contains 'Acarbose' that works by inhibiting the action of intestinal enzymes that break down complex sugars and starches into simple sugars. Thereby, delays the absorption of sugar into the blood and reduces the abnormal rise in blood sugar levels after meals.
Take Peribite 50 mg Tablet with food and chew it preferably with the first bite of each meal or swallow it as a whole with little water. Do not crush or break it. Your doctor will advise you on how often you take your tablets based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience flatulence (gas), stomach pain, or diarrhoea. Most of these side effects of Peribite 50 mg Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are known to be allergic to Peribite 50 mg Tablet or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Peribite 50 mg Tablet is not recommended for children. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before taking Peribite 50 mg Tablet .
