Used For:

• Velon-M 50mg/850mg Tablets are a combination medication used to manage type 2 diabetes. They typically contain:
  • Metformin (850 mg): A biguanide that helps control blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose production in the liver.
  • A second component (e.g., a sulfonylurea): This works to enhance insulin secretion or act through other mechanisms to further manage blood glucose levels.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort.
• Some patients might experience a metallic taste in the mouth or decreased appetite.
• Other potential side effects can include dizziness, headache, and, in rare cases, lactic acidosis (a serious condition characterized by muscle pain, weakness, and difficulty breathing).
• In rare cases, severe side effects may include allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, difficulty breathing) or severe gastrointestinal issues.

Precautions:

• Before taking Velon-M 50mg/850mg Tablets, inform your doctor if you have any known allergies, medical conditions (especially kidney or liver disease, heart disease, or a history of lactic acidosis), or if you are taking any other medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements.
• Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels, kidney function, and other relevant parameters is important during treatment.
• This medication should be used with caution in patients with kidney impairment or those undergoing procedures that might affect kidney function.
• Avoid alcohol while taking this medication, as it can increase the risk of lactic acidosis.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using this medication.
