Introduction
Vagbod 0.2mg Tablet should be taken just before a meal. The dose and frequency will be decided by your doctor to control your blood sugar levels effectively. Do not stop taking it suddenly without consulting your doctor, as it may increase your blood sugar levels and put you at risk of serious complications like kidney damage and blindness. This medicine is part of a treatment program that includes a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight reduction as advised by your doctor.
