About Jalra-M 50mg/850mg Tablet

Jalra-M 50mg/850mg Tablet is an oral anti-diabetic medicine used to manage Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in adults.
It combines two well-established agents — Vildagliptin and Metformin — to help achieve better blood sugar control when diet, exercise, and single-drug therapy are not sufficient.
The combination provides dual and complementary mechanisms, targeting both insulin secretion and glucose production.

How It Works

• Vildagliptin (50mg): A DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormone levels, leading to enhanced insulin secretion and reduced glucagon release in response to meals.

• Metformin (850mg): A biguanide that reduces glucose production in the liver, improves insulin sensitivity, and enhances peripheral glucose uptake.

Together, they improve fasting and postprandial (after-meal) glucose control and help prevent diabetes-related complications.
