Vilmax Tablet Substitute

Vilmax Tablet contains Vildagliptin, an anti-diabetic drug that works by preventing the breakdown of incretin hormones, namely: glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) that control blood sugar levels. Thereby, it increases the levels of these two hormones. Vilmax Tablet increases insulin production by the pancreas and decreases glucagon production by the liver. Thus, it helps to control blood sugar levels.
