Voglimore 3MF 500 SR Tablet
This anti-diabetic medicine is manufactured by Morepen Laboratories Ltd. It contains Metformin 500mg+Voglibose 0.3mg and is used to help manage high blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes.
Key Ingredients (Composition)
- Metformin 500 mg (Sustained Release) This component works by reducing the amount of sugar produced by the liver and improving the body's sensitivity to insulin, helping cells absorb more sugar from the blood.
- Voglibose 0.3 mg This ingredient slows down the absorption of sugar from the food you eat in your intestines, particularly after meals, preventing sharp rises in blood sugar.
Primary Use
The Voglimore 3MF 500 SR Tablet is used to control elevated blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is typically prescribed when diet and exercise alone, or treatment with a single anti-diabetic medicine, are not sufficient to achieve adequate blood sugar control.

Uses:
- Management of Type 2 Diabetes: It is prescribed for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus to help lower and control high blood sugar levels.
- When Diet and Exercise are Insufficient: This medicine is typically used when lifestyle interventions alone (such as diet control and physical activity) have not been enough to adequately manage blood glucose levels.
