Vysov (Vildagliptin)

1. What is Vysov (Vildagliptin) used for?

Vysov contains Vildagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor used to treat Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It helps regulate blood sugar levels by increasing insulin release and decreasing the amount of glucose produced by the liver. It is often prescribed alongside diet, exercise, or other diabetic medications like metformin.

2. How does Vildagliptin work?

Vildagliptin works by inhibiting the enzyme DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4), which breaks down incretin hormones. By preserving these hormones, it increases insulin secretion and lowers glucagon production after meals, leading to better blood sugar control.

3. What is the typical dosage for Vysov?

The recommended dose is usually:

1. Vysov 50 mg once or twice daily, depending on medical condition and response.
2. When combined with metformin: 50 mg Vildagliptin + 500/850/1000 mg metformin twice daily.

Dosage should always be prescribed by your doctor based on your individual blood sugar levels and treatment plan.

4. Can I take Vysov with other diabetes medications?

Yes, Vysov is commonly used in combination with other diabetes medications such as:

• Metformin
• Sulfonylureas
• Thiazolidinediones (like pioglitazone)

Always consult your doctor before combining medications.

5. What are the side effects of Vildagliptin?

Inform your healthcare provider if you notice symptoms like fatigue, yellowing of the skin, or abdominal pain.
