There are times when I forget to take the medicine before breakfast or dinner. Is it okay to take it after meals? ## Galvusmet 50/500 when can i take this medicine before breakfast & before dinner ## Galvusmet 50/500 when i take this medicine before breakfast & before dinner ## It is best to take it before a meal, that way it has time to start working, when you are digesting your food, and will likely experience the most blood sugar fluctuations. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, flatulence, diarrhea, and stomach pain. It contains Metformin, and Vidagliptin. Harisankar what instructions did your doctor provide for you?

What is the purpose of this medicine prescribed by my doctor? ## I have been taking Gluconorm SR 1g in the morning and 500 mg at night + Vobit 0.2mg in the morning and in the afternoon. Now my PBS goes up to 250 and my doctor recommended Glynase Mf (1 in the morning) + Galvusmet 50/500mg at night. Where do I stand with everything? Is this combination of meds safe?

I have been using Janumet XR for 2 years. And my panel doctor has passed away recently and I have changed to another panel doctor. The question is this panel doctor prescribed me Galvus Met 50mg/850mg, what is the difference? Which one is better? I am a diabetic for 20 years. ## Janumet XR is listed as containing Sitagliptin and Metformin, while Galvusmet is listed as containing Vidagliptin and Metformin, according to NIH reports. Both have been proven effective at treating diabetes, it's really just a matter of which one works better for you. Have you tried the new medication, yet? The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, flatulence, and hypoglycemia. ## Which is the newest diabetic drug which is better than the tw...

Sir I am diabetic patient level II and the decease was discovered in my body in 1991. Lately I was advised by my Doctor Galvus Met 50/1000 1 + 1, with diamicron MR 60 one and half tablet before breakfast as well as one 10point insuline dose at 10 am daily. With above medication although i had good control and my hbA1c checked last week was 7.1, but I was experiencing low sugar level often in late afternoon ( twice or thrice weakly) whenever I had much fatique of running arround. Now I have replaced my morning dose with Metformin 850 instead of Galvus met 50/1000. since then I not have low sugar problem any more, but my randum sugar comes 200 plus some times. Pl advise if this combination of medication is ok or shuld i go back to Galvusmet 50/1000 1 +1. Thanks a lot for your consideration.

I'm type 2 diabetic and on Galvusmet 50/1000 morning and night. Sugar is not under control and I have been gaining weight like crazy ever since I started on it. Is this a known issue with this medicine? Please help. Thanks.
