Dear lybrate-user ten 20 m 500 contains two medicines i.e teneligliptin 20 mg and metformin 500 mg, where as glycomet 500 sr contains only metformin 500 mg. This ten 20 m 500 is superior in action.

Hba1c is quite high. You need triple therapy. Monotherapy of metformin won't control sugar at this stage. Do exercise regularly and stick to diabetic diet. Feel free to call me or visit my diabetes clinic.

The delayed version releases the drug more slowly and this usually eliminates the gastrointestinal problems.

Ir is immediate release and sr is sustained release formulations. Both work well but usually sr formulations have lesser gastrointestinal side effects.

Hello, thanks for the query.
Both the products are same. The er refers to extended release, which means the drug is released slowly over 12 hours in the gut. That helps maintain a longer therapeutic level. It is beneficial more so if a person has any side effects like gastrointestinal disturbances if plain metformin is taken. Both are fine. Thanks.

Mr. lybrate-user, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. Your fasting and pp glucose levels look very good. Please also look at hba1c%, that will give a better idea. You may stop metformin 500 mg for a few days and then check the fasting & pp glucose, if levels remain in good control then continue the same. Apart from the drugs diet and exercise are equally important in diabetes control. Thanks.

Hello metformin is very safe drug. One can take it without much problem. But your sugar level appears high. To give any suggestion I will need all details.

Both contain the same drugs but glycomet gp 1 forte is a sustained release preparation which releases medicines at a uniform rate over a period of time.
