Description:
Metsmall 500 Tablet SR is a medicine used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women. By helping to control blood sugar levels, it reduces the risk of diabetes-related complications and improves menstrual health in PCOS. These tablets are smaller and lighter than standard metformin tablets, making them easier to swallow and supporting better adherence to long-term treatment.
Metsmall 500 Tablet SR should be taken with food to minimize side effects like nausea and abdominal discomfort. It is important to take it regularly at the same time each day for maximum benefit and continue with a healthy diet and exercise routine as advised by your doctor.
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, flatulence, headache, and loss of appetite. Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) may occur if taken with other antidiabetic medications, alcohol, or after missing meals. Before starting the medicine, inform your doctor about any existing kidney, liver, or heart problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should use it only under medical supervision. Regular monitoring of kidney function and blood sugar levels is recommended during treatment, and alcohol consumption should be limited to reduce the risk of side effects.
