🔸 Indications:

Viglimet is indicated for:

  • Management of type 2 diabetes mellitus

  • Used when diet and exercise alone do not provide adequate glycemic control

  • Can be prescribed as initial therapy or added to other antidiabetic agents


🔸 Pharmacology:

Viglimet combines:

  • Sitagliptin: A DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormones, enhancing insulin release and suppressing glucagon secretion.

  • Metformin: A biguanide that reduces hepatic glucose production and improves peripheral insulin sensitivity.

The combination provides complementary mechanisms for better glucose control.


🔸 Dosage:

  • Typically 1 tablet twice daily with meals, or as directed by physician

  • Dose adjustments based on therapeutic response and tolerability


🔸 Administration:

Take orally with meals to minimize gastrointestinal side effects. Swallow whole without crushing or chewing.


🔸 Interaction:

  • Alcohol increases risk of lactic acidosis with Metformin

  • May interact with cationic drugs like digoxin

  • Concomitant use with insulin or sulfonylureas may increase hypoglycemia risk


🔸 Contraindications:

  • Severe renal impairment (eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73 m²)

  • Metabolic acidosis including diabetic ketoacidosis

  • Hypersensitivity to Sitagliptin, Metformin, or excipients


🔸 Side Effects:

  • Rare: lactic acidosis, pancreatitis, allergic reactions

  • Sitagliptin-related: joint pain, upper respiratory symptoms


🔸 Pregnancy & Lactation:
