TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET, a medication commonly prescribed for type 2 diabetes, combines Teneligliptin and Metformin. While effective in managing blood sugar, it's important to be aware of its potential side effects. **Common Side Effects (usually mild and often subside):** * Nausea * Vomiting * Diarrhea * Abdominal pain or discomfort * Loss of appetite * Metallic taste in the mouth * Headache **Less Common Side Effects:** * Constipation * Flatulence (gas) * Dizziness * Nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the nose and throat, like a common cold) * Skin rash or itching **Important Considerations & Rare but Serious Side Effects:** * **Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar):** While TENGLYN M generally has a low risk of causing low blood sugar on its own, the risk significantly increases if taken with other diabetes medications like insulin or sulfonylureas. Symptoms include sweating, shakiness, confusion, extreme hunger, or weakness. * **Lactic Acidosis:** This is a very rare but severe medical emergency, primarily associated with Metformin. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience unusual muscle pain, difficulty breathing, excessive tiredness or weakness, cold feeling, dizziness, or slow/irregular heartbeat. * **Vitamin B12 Deficiency:** Long-term use of Metformin can lead to a deficiency in Vitamin B12, which may cause anemia or nerve problems. Regular monitoring is advisable. * **Allergic Reactions:** Though rare, severe allergic reactions like swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, and difficulty breathing may occur. It's crucial to consult your doctor if any side effect persists, worsens, or if you experience any unusual symptoms.

Allergies
Consult a DoctorDo not take Tenglyn M 500mg Tablet if you are allergic to Teneligliptin, Metformin, or any other ingredients in the tablet. Inform your doctor about any known allergies.
TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET is a combination medicine containing Teneligliptin and Metformin. It is primarily used to lower high blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient.
Teneligliptin works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreasing glucose production in the liver, while Metformin reduces glucose production in the liver and improves the body's sensitivity to insulin. Together, they help control blood sugar levels.
Each TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET typically contains Teneligliptin (usually 20mg) and Metformin Hydrochloride (500mg).
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, metallic taste in the mouth, and headache. These are usually mild and tend to subside as your body adjusts to the medication.
Metformin alone rarely causes hypoglycemia. However, when combined with Teneligliptin or other anti-diabetic medications, or if there are significant changes in diet or exercise, the risk of low blood sugar might increase.
Before taking TENGLYN M, inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, heart conditions, severe infections, or if you are scheduled for any surgery or X-ray procedures involving injectable dye. It is crucial to avoid excessive alcohol consumption while on this medication.
Take TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually with meals to reduce gastrointestinal upset. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet; swallow it whole.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
It is strongly advised to avoid or limit alcohol consumption while taking TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET. Alcohol can significantly increase the risk of lactic acidosis, a serious side effect of Metformin, and can also increase the risk of low blood sugar.
TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. It is crucial to discuss your medical condition and all medications with your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Store TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET at room temperature, away from direct light and moisture. Keep it out of reach of children and pets. Do not freeze the medicine.
No, TENGLYN M 500MG TABLET is specifically indicated for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus and is not effective for treating type 1 diabetes.
In case of an overdose, seek immediate medical attention. Overdose can lead to severe hypoglycemia (very low blood sugar) or lactic acidosis, both of which are serious medical emergencies requiring prompt treatment.
Yes, several other brands contain the active ingredients Teneligliptin and Metformin. Examples include Zita-Met, Jalra M, Glycomet-GP (check specific strengths), Tenevia M, and Tenelip M. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before considering a switch to a different brand.
Metformin, one of the components of TENGLYN M, is often associated with modest weight loss or weight neutrality, rather than weight gain, which can be a beneficial effect for many individuals with type 2 diabetes.
Lactic acidosis is a rare but very serious side effect of Metformin. Symptoms include unusual muscle pain, difficulty breathing, stomach pain, dizziness, lightheadedness, feeling cold, and a slow or irregular heartbeat. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek immediate medical help.
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic condition, and treatment with TENGLYN M is usually long-term. Do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor, even if your blood sugar levels appear to be under control. Abrupt discontinuation can lead to a rise in blood sugar.
