About Vildagliptin
Vildagliptin, best known by the Novartis brand Galvus, is a DPP-4 inhibitor (a 'gliptin') used for type-2 diabetes. In Nigeria it is most often taken as Galvus Met — a single tablet that combines vildagliptin 50mg with metformin 500mg, 850mg, or 1000mg — when metformin alone no longer controls blood sugar. Plain vildagliptin 50mg tablets are also available, and several NAFDAC-registered generics (Vildamet, Vilget, Vildishal, Gliptus, Xyvida) now compete with the Novartis brand.
