About Metmin-A Tablet

Metmin-A Tablet is a combination medication primarily used to restore normal menstrual function and reduce cyst formation in PCOS patients. A fluid-filled sac that develops on an ovary is known as an ovarian cyst. They're very common and usually don't cause any symptoms. Ovarian cysts can affect both ovaries at the same time or only one.

Metmin-A Tablet combines two medications: metformin (antidiabetic) and alpha-lipoic acid. Metmin-A Tablet improves insulin sensitivity and ovarian angiogenesis to restore normal menstrual function and prevent cyst development in PCOS patients (blood vessel formation).

The dose and duration of treatment will depend on the severity of your condition. Take it for as long as the doctor has prescribed for maximum benefits.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Ovarian cyst: An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops on an ovary. They're extremely common and rarely cause any symptoms. Ovarian cysts can affect both or only one ovary at the same time. An ovarian cyst usually causes symptoms only if it splits (ruptures), is very large, or blocks the blood supply to the ovaries. In these cases, pelvic pain, which can range from a dull, heavy sensation to a sudden, severe, and sharp pain, pain during sex, difficulty emptying your bowels, a frequent need to urinate, heavy periods, irregular periods, or lighter periods than normal, may occur.
