I have had Type 2 diabetes for 20 years and have been taking Vogab GM1 for the past two months. What side effects should I be aware of?

Asked by Male, 74 · 1 month ago

Vogab GM1 helps control blood sugar in patients with Type 2 diabetes and is usually well-tolerated. Some people may experience mild side effects such as stomach upset, diarrhoea, or bloating, and it can occasionally cause low blood sugar, with symptoms like sweating or dizziness. Very rarely, it may lead to a serious condition called lactic acidosis. To reduce risks, take the tablets with meals, monitor your blood sugar regularly, and contact your doctor if you feel unusually weak, short of breath, or have ongoing stomach pain. Following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and maintaining good lifestyle habits can also improve the medication’s effectiveness and lower the chance of side effects.

Vogab GM1 is a combination medication used to manage type 2 diabetes by helping control blood sugar levels. Common side effects you might experience include vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, nausea, altered or impaired sense of taste, and loose or watery stools. Less commonly, it can cause sleepiness, increased sensitivity to light, dizziness, low blood cell counts, and low blood sugar.

  • Since you have been taking Vogab GM1 for two months, monitor for symptoms like persistent nausea, unusual tiredness, dizziness, or signs of low blood sugar such as sweating, shaking, or confusion.
  • Take the medication with food to reduce stomach upset.
  • Do not stop the medication abruptly without consulting your doctor, as this can worsen blood sugar control and increase risks of complications like nerve or kidney damage.
  • If you notice severe side effects or symptoms that interfere with daily activities, contact your endocrinologist or diabetes specialist promptly.

If you want, I can explain how each component of Vogab GM1 works or how to manage side effects effectively.
