Galvus 50mg - 56 Tablets (Vildagliptin)
What are Galvus 50mg - 56 Tablets?
Galvus contains the active ingredient Vildagliptin 50mg. This is a treatment for type 2 diabetes used with proper diet and exercise to treat high blood sugar levels. It may be used in combination with other medicines for type 2 diabetes.
How does Vildagliptin work as a treatment for Type 2 Diabetes?
Vildagliptin works by making the pancreas produce more insulin and less glucagon.
It does this by blocking the breakdown of incretin hormones in the body. These hormones are released after a meal and stimulate the pancreas to produce insulin. Vildagliptin prolongs their action, stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin when blood glucose levels are high.
