Diabetes

Metformin belongs to a group of medication called biguanides. It works by decreasing the amount of glucose absorbed from food and produced by the liver. It is used in combination with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Regulating blood sugar levels can help prevent kidney damage, vision problems, nerve problems, loss of limbs and sexual function problems.

Metformin Mylan (Metformin Hydrochloride) is prescribed as treatment for type II diabetes in cases where diet, exercise and weight loss have not worked, or in cases where insulin therapy is not appropriate.

Mignar works by slowing the breakdown and absorption of table sugar and other complex sugars in the small intestine. The active ingredient miglitol is an antidiabetic type of drug that delays the digestion of carbohydrates in the body to decrease the amount of sugar that passes into the blood after a meal. The medication is usually used by people to treat type 2 diabetes when their condition cannot be controlled by diet alone.

Minirin containing the active ingredient desmopressin is considered a type of vasopressin analogue used as a hormone replacement. The man made hormone is used to help balance the amount of water and salt in the body by preventing excessive amounts of water from being filtered out of the blood and into the urine. The medication can be used to treat diabetes insipidus, a condition where the body is not functioning properly and produces an abnormally large amount of urine. Some patients may also use the drug to treat bedwetting.
