Is Glycomet Or Glyciphage More Effective In The Treatment Of Diabetes?
Hi doctor, my mom is suffering from diabetes from past 5 years. she was prescribed by doctors to use clycomet 500 sometimes and glyciphage sometimes... which one is better. whether clycomet 500 or glycighage. can you please suggest me? while looking through the ingredients of both looking same...
Glycomet is composed of 'metformin', which is a drug that helps to maintain balanced blood sugar in the body and hence is used to treat diabetes mellitus.
Glyciphage is also composed of 'metformin'. Both have the same composition, but the manufacturers are different. Hence, you can take anyone which has been prescribed as they would cause the same effect.
Kindly take the medication as prescribed by your doctor and do the necessary follow-up as advised.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
