Key points

  • Voglibose slows the digestion of carbohydrates, reducing the blood sugar spike that follows a meal.
  • Glucophage Trio is the only product in this catalogue, combining voglibose with glimepiride and metformin in one tablet.
  • Voglibose may cause digestive side effects such as bloating or diarrhoea, particularly when treatment begins.

Voglibose is an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, which means it slows the enzymes that break down carbohydrates in the gut. This delays the absorption of sugar after a meal, keeping blood glucose levels from rising too high. The single tablet in this catalogue combines voglibose with glimepiride and metformin, so one dose addresses several aspects of blood-sugar control at once.
