Uses of Cgbose Tablet
Benefits of Cgbose Tablet
In Treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Cgbose 25mg Tablet is a medicine that helps to control high blood glucose (sugar) levels when given in combination with other anti-diabetics. It works by slowing down the digestion and absorption of glucose (carbohydrates) from your digestive tract, thereby decreasing the rise in blood glucose levels immediately after meals.
Lowering blood glucose levels is an essential part of managing diabetes and reduces the risk of getting serious complications of diabetes such as kidney or eye damage, nerve problems and loss of limbs.
This medicine will also reduce the risk of death from cardiovascular disease if you have type 2 diabetes and already have cardiovascular disease. Taking this medicine regularly along with proper diet and exercise will help you live a normal, healthy life.

FAQs
Does Cgbose 25mg Tablet cause hypoglycemia?
Cgbose 25mg Tablet does not cause hypoglycemia by itself though it has a glucose-lowering effect. However, a fall of blood sugar levels in the hypoglycemic range may occur when given along with other antidiabetic medicines or insulin. If this occurs, consult your doctor who may modify your dose accordingly.
Why does Cgbose 25mg Tablet cause flatulence?
Cgbose 25mg Tablet blocks the digestion of carbohydrates which causes the accumulation of undigested carbohydrates in the colon. Bacterial fermentation of the accumulated carbohydrates causes intestinal gas, leading to flatulence and abdominal pain.
Can Cgbose 25mg Tablet cause diarrhea?
Yes, diarrhea is a common side effect of Cgbose 25mg Tablet. However, this does not affect everybody. Any food containing carbohydrates, such as household sugar (cane sugar) can cause diarrhea and severe abdominal pain. If diarrhea persists or becomes severe, then contact your doctor immediately.

What if I forget to take Cgbose 25mg Tablet?

What will happen if more than the recommended dose of Cgbose 25mg Tablet is taken?
