XELMET (METFORMIN) 500MG TABLETS 60’S

Xelmet is a brand name for a medication containing the active ingredient metformin hydrochloride. Metformin is a commonly prescribed medication used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps to control blood sugar levels by decreasing the amount of glucose produced by the liver and increasing the sensitivity of muscle cells to insulin.

The dosage of Xelmet (metformin) 850mg tablets would typically be determined by a healthcare provider based on individual factors such as the patient’s age, weight, kidney function, and response to treatment. However, a common starting dose for adults is usually around 500 mg or 850 mg taken orally once or twice daily with meals. The dosage may be gradually increased over time to achieve optimal blood sugar control.

It’s important to take metformin exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider and to follow their instructions regarding dosage and frequency. Taking more than the prescribed dose can increase the risk of side effects, while taking too little may not effectively control blood sugar levels.
