How Ondero Met Tablet Works:
Ondero Met 2.5mg/1000mg Tablet combines two antidiabetic agents:
- Metformin (1000 mg) is a biguanide that works by reducing the amount of glucose produced by the liver and improving the body’s response to insulin.
- Linagliptin (2.5 mg) is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases the levels of insulin after meals and decreases the amount of glucose produced by the liver, which helps lower blood glucose levels.
Together, these medicines help improve overall glycemic control, reducing both fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels.
