Glucophage 850mg Tablets (100 tablets) contain Metformin, an oral antidiabetic medication used to manage type 2 diabetes. It works by reducing hepatic glucose production, improving insulin sensitivity, and increasing the uptake of glucose by muscle cells, thus helping to lower blood sugar levels. Glucophage 850mg is typically taken once or twice daily with food to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. It is most effective when combined with diet and exercise. Metformin is often considered a first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes.
