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.

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.

Vasoserc Betahistine Hydrochloride tablets

Betahistine (Serc) is a popular medicine that is prescribed to treat a variety of complaints. The main indication for taking Betahistine is to treat patients with Ménière’s disease, however many patients take Betahistine to relieve other symptoms, such as vertigo, dizziness, and tinnitus.
Good evidence to support the use of Betahistine for the treatment of Ménière’s disease is severely lacking despite its common use. About five years ago a scientific study was performed in China to evaluate the potential benefits of Betahistine for tinnitus patients. The results of this study demonstrated a reduction in the loudness of tinnitus when using special hearing tests to assess tinnitus loudness, but when questionnaires were used to assess whether the subjects felt that their tinnitus was quieter, or whether the impact of tinnitus on their life was reduced, no improvements could be satisfactorily demonstrated. The results of this study, to some degree, are interesting, however this type of study has not been replicated in either China, or anywhere else in the rest of the world. Only a summary of this study has been reproduced in English, so I have written to the authors for clarification of the methods used and some more details regarding the study findings, but unfortunately I am still waiting for a reply.
