Like all medicines, ELIPTIN M FORTE TABLET can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Most side effects are mild and temporary. Common side effects may include: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain or indigestion, loss of appetite, metallic taste in the mouth, headache, upper respiratory tract infection (like a common cold), sore throat, nasal congestion. Less common or serious side effects (contact your doctor immediately if you experience these): severe muscle pain, unexplained muscle pain, stomach pain, increased breathing, feeling cold, or unusually tired (signs of lactic acidosis, a rare but serious complication, especially with Metformin); sudden, severe pain in your stomach area that may spread to your back (signs of pancreatitis); severe allergic reactions like rash, hives, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing; severe and disabling joint pain; skin blistering or peeling (bullous pemphigoid); symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) such as sweating, shaking, fast heartbeat, dizziness, hunger, confusion (especially if taken with other diabetes medications like insulin or sulfonylureas). Always discuss any concerns with your doctor or pharmacist.

Allergies
UnsafeDo not take Eliptin M Forte if you have a known allergy to Metformin, Vildagliptin, or any other ingredients.
Eliptin M Forte Tablet 15's is used to treat Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in adults. It helps to control high blood sugar levels when diet and exercise alone are not enough.
Eliptin M Forte Tablet contains two active ingredients: Vildagliptin and Metformin Hydrochloride.
Vildagliptin works by increasing the levels of natural substances called incretins, which help the pancreas produce more insulin when blood sugar is high and reduce the amount of sugar made by the liver. Metformin works by reducing glucose production in the liver, decreasing glucose absorption from the intestines, and improving insulin sensitivity in the body. Together, they effectively lower blood sugar levels.
The dosage is typically prescribed by a doctor based on your condition. It is usually taken once or twice daily with meals to reduce stomach upset. Always follow your doctor's instructions.
Yes, it is generally recommended to take Eliptin M Forte Tablet with meals (especially Metformin) to minimize gastrointestinal side effects like nausea and diarrhea.
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, loss of appetite, metallic taste in the mouth, headache, dizziness, and mild hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) if taken with other anti-diabetic medications.
Serious but rare side effects include lactic acidosis (a build-up of lactic acid in the blood, primarily due to Metformin), pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), and severe allergic reactions. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms like severe stomach pain, persistent nausea/vomiting, unusual muscle pain, or difficulty breathing.
It should not be taken by individuals with severe kidney disease, severe liver disease, uncontrolled heart failure, a history of lactic acidosis, or those undergoing certain medical procedures requiring contrast agents. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor.
While Vildagliptin and Metformin alone generally have a low risk of causing hypoglycemia, this risk can increase when Eliptin M Forte is taken in combination with other anti-diabetic medications like insulin or sulfonylureas.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it's almost time for your next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
It is generally recommended to limit or avoid alcohol consumption while taking Eliptin M Forte, especially due to the Metformin component. Alcohol can increase the risk of lactic acidosis and may also affect blood sugar levels.
Store the tablets at room temperature, away from moisture and direct heat. Keep them out of reach of children and pets.
Yes, this medication works best when combined with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight. Follow your doctor's and dietitian's advice on diet and lifestyle modifications.
While several brands contain Vildagliptin and Metformin, it's crucial to consult your doctor or pharmacist before switching. They can advise on equivalent dosages and ensure the new medication is suitable for you.
In case of an overdose, seek immediate medical attention. Symptoms could include severe stomach upset, breathing difficulties, or symptoms of lactic acidosis.
Yes, both ingredients are metabolized and excreted by the body. Metformin is primarily excreted by the kidneys, and its use is contraindicated in severe kidney impairment due to increased risk of lactic acidosis. Liver function should also be monitored, especially if there's pre-existing liver disease. Your doctor will conduct tests to assess your kidney and liver function before and during treatment.
