Glucophage (metformin) tablets


What is Glucophage?

Glucophage is used to help control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It reduces the symptoms that are caused by high blood sugar and, by doing so, prevents damage to the body. If you would like to order Glucophage online, Dokteronline.com’s partner pharmacies will be happy to assist you.

What is Glucophage used for?

Type 2 diabetes is a form of diabetes that develops when the liver and muscles become resistant to insulin. As a result the pancreas needs to produce more insulin than it would normally need to. If the pancreas can no longer produce enough insulin to bring down sugar levels, the body cannot break down the sugars that are in the food that we eat. This causes blood sugar levels to rise and as a consequence the symptoms of diabetes (thirst, dry mouth, increased need to urinate and fatigue) will begin to appear. In the long term, high blood sugar can damage blood vessels and organs. As time goes on, this damage causes serious complications. Glucophage decreases the amount of sugar (glucose) in the blood. It reduces the symptoms of diabetes and so minimises the chance of complications.
