Description

Treviamet Xr 50/1000mg Tablets contain Sitagliptin + Metformin and are made by Getz Pharma. Sitagliptin raises the body’s own incretin hormones to improve insulin release after meals, and metformin reduces sugar production by the liver. Together they control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes. This is an extended-release (XR) tablet taken once daily with a meal; swallow it whole. You can order it online from Divine Medicines with home delivery across Lahore.
