Eucreas

Eucreas is a medication used to manage type 2 diabetes. It is a combination tablet that contains two active ingredients, vildagliptin and metformin, which help control blood sugar levels.

Eucreas works in two ways: vildagliptin increases insulin release and decreases liver glucose production, while metformin improves insulin sensitivity, helping to lower blood sugar levels.

Eucreas helps control blood sugar levels, offers convenience as a combination medication, and is generally considered weight-neutral.

Eucreas is typically prescribed for adults with type 2 diabetes who haven't achieved adequate blood sugar control with diet and exercise alone.

Follow your healthcare provider's dosing instructions. Eucreas is usually taken with meals to reduce the risk of stomach upset.

Common side effects may include headache, nausea, diarrhea, and stomach discomfort. Serious side effects are rare but can occur.

It's best to limit alcohol consumption while taking Eucreas, as alcohol can affect blood sugar levels.

It's essential to consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding while taking Eucreas, as they can provide guidance on its use.

Your healthcare provider will advise you on how frequently to monitor your blood sugar levels. Regular monitoring helps track the effectiveness of the medication.

Inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, or herbal products you are taking, as some may interact with Eucreas. Your provider can help determine the best combination for your health.
