About Mignar 25-MF Tablet

Mignar 25-MF Tablet belongs to the class of medications called ‘antidiabetic drugs’ used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic or life-long condition in which blood sugar or glucose levels rise more than normal. It occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin (utilizes glucose to produce energy) or if produced, it cannot function properly in the body.

Mignar 25-MF Tablet contains Miglitol and Metformin. Metformin acts by decreasing liver glucose production and intestinal glucose uptake. Miglitol works by inhibiting intestinal enzymes that break complex sugars into simple sugars like glucose. Together, Mignar 25-MF Tablet can effectively prevent the rise in glucose levels in the body.

You should take this medicine exactly as prescribed by the doctor. The common side-effects of Mignar 25-MF Tablet are flatulence (gas), diarrhoea, abdominal pain, feeling sick (nausea), being sick (vomiting) and loss of appetite. These side effects can be reduced if this medicine is taken with food or after a meal. However, if any of these side effects persist or get worse, inform your doctor immediately.

It is not recommended to take Mignar 25-MF Tablet if you are allergic to any contents of it. Mignar 25-MF Tablet is not recommended if you are having any intestinal problems such as inflammation, ulcers, blockage, hernia, liver problems, severe kidney impairment, uncontrolled diabetes, severe dehydration, severe infections, and a recent history of heart attack or heart failure. Mignar 25-MF Tablet is not recommended for children and adolescents below 18 years, pregnant women, and breastfeeding mothers. It should be used with caution in elderly people as they may require dose adjustments. Mignar 25-MF Tablet may interact with alcohol and worsen the condition. Mignar 25-MF Tablet may cause hypoglycemia (low glucose levels), so avoid driving if you develop weakness, dizziness, fast heartbeat, or decrease in alertness.

Medicinal Benefits

Mignar 25-MF Tablet  is a combination of two drugs: Miglitol and Metformin. This combination therapy is preferred in patients with poorly controlled diabetes. It reduces blood glucose levels, especially post-prandial glucose levels (glucose levels after meals) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. An increase in post-prandial glucose levels can be a risk factor for diabetes complications such as tissue and organ damage. So, a decrease in glucose levels helps control diabetes, reduce this risk and improve healthy life.
