Consult your doctor first:

Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.

Uses

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)

Medicinal Benefits

Inosmet Tablet 15's is used to treat polycystic ovary/ovarian syndrome. It consists of Myo-inositol and Metformin. Myo-inositol is a vitamin-like substance. It reduces blood glucose levels and improves the ovulation process in women with PCOS. Metformin is an antidiabetic medicine that belongs to the class of biguanides. The majority of women with PCOS have higher insulin levels. Metformin is an insulin sensitizer that improves insulin sensitivity (body cells utilize insulin effectively to produce glucose) and thus increases the effects of insulin. This further decreases the inflammation in PCOS conditions and regularizes the ovulation process.
