FAQs
When should I take Zomelis 50mg Tablet?
You can take Zomelis 50mg Tablet tablets before, with, or after meals. If you have been prescribed to take this medicine once daily, then take it in the morning. In case you have to take it twice daily, then you should prefer taking the first dose in the morning and the second dose in the evening.
Does Zomelis 50mg Tablet cause hypoglycemia?
Yes, Zomelis 50mg Tablet may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), but the chances are lesser as compared to other antidiabetic drugs. Evidence suggests that treatment with Zomelis 50mg Tablet has been shown to cause hypoglycemia in very rare cases. The risk is low even in those who are prone to hypoglycemia like elderly people or people being treated with insulin. However, the chance of hypoglycemia increases if Zomelis 50mg Tablet is taken along with other antidiabetic drugs.
Does Zomelis 50mg Tablet cause weight gain?
No, Zomelis 50mg Tablet does not cause weight gain. Moreover, medicines, such as Zomelis 50mg Tablet, are generally supposed to decrease weight since they act by increasing satiety (feeling of fullness) and delaying emptying of the stomach. This further decreases hunger, restricting the patient from eating more than required.
Is Zomelis 50mg Tablet the same as Sitagliptin?
No, Zomelis 50mg Tablet is not the same as Sitagliptin, but both drugs belong to the same class. Additionally, these two drugs have a similar mechanism of decreasing the blood glucose levels. However, Zomelis 50mg Tablet when given twice daily is marginally better in controlling blood sugar when compared to Sitagliptin which is given once daily.
