CVMET TABLET is used to treat diabetes. It contains Chromium, Metformin, and Voglibose. Chromium increases insulin sensitivity, protects the integrity of insulin receptors, and allows insulin to bind effectively. Metformin lowers the absorption and production of sugar in the body. It will enable the better use of existing insulin. Voglibose reduces the post-meal rise in blood sugar levels by slowing the breakdown of complex sugars into simple sugars. Together, they help control blood sugar levels.

About CVMET TABLET
