What Experts Say

Type 2 diabetes develops when the body does not make or use insulin well. High sugar over years damages nerves, eyes, kidneys and the heart. Most people also need regular HbA1c tests every few months to see how well sugar is controlled overall. Regular exercise and a balanced diet make the medicine work better.

Vildagliptin blocks an enzyme called DPP-4. This raises natural gut hormones that increase insulin release after meals and reduce the sugar released by the liver. Vildagliptin has a low chance of causing dangerously low sugar when used alone, which many patients appreciate. Always read the pack for the exact strength before starting.

It works best with a healthy diet, regular walking and weight control. Doctors usually check liver tests before and during treatment, and it is not used for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Do not stop the tablet or change the dose without medical advice, even if home sugar readings look normal.
