Pharmaniaga Glumet Forte 850mg Tablet 20s (Strip)

Pharmaniaga Glumet Forte 850mg Tablet is an oral antidiabetic medication from the biguanide class, manufactured by Pharmaniaga Manufacturing Berhad, with metformin hydrochloride as its active ingredient. Common side effects can include nausea, diarrhoea, stomach discomfort, and a metallic taste in the mouth, particularly when starting treatment, while a rare but serious condition called lactic acidosis is something your doctor will brief you on. You may want to know whether it should be taken with meals, how it interacts with other medications you're on, or what signs to watch for if something feels off — all worth raising with your healthcare provider. As a product from an established Malaysian pharmaceutical manufacturer with decades of regulated production experience, Glumet Forte is one many households already recognise and trust.

The typical adult dose is one 850mg tablet taken two to three times daily, with a maximum of 3g per day, though your doctor may start you on a lower dose and adjust gradually. Always follow your prescribed dosing schedule rather than changing it on your own.

This product generally has a shelf life of approximately 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture under recommended storage conditions. Check the expiry date printed on the packaging before each use.

Each tablet contains 850mg metformin hydrochloride, a widely studied biguanide compound listed on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines.

Pharmaniaga Glumet Forte 850mg Tablet is contraindicated in individuals with significant kidney impairment, acute or chronic conditions that may alter kidney function (such as dehydration or severe infection), known hypersensitivity to metformin, and conditions with a risk of lactic acidosis such as severe liver disease, uncontrolled heart failure, or heavy alcohol use. It should be temporarily stopped before procedures using iodinated contrast media, as advised by your doctor.

Excessive alcohol intake should be avoided, as it can increase the risk of lactic acidosis and affect blood sugar control.
Iodinated contrast media used in certain medical imaging procedures, as well as diuretics, corticosteroids, and beta-agonists, may also interact with metformin and affect glucose regulation, so it's important to inform your doctor of all medications and upcoming procedures.
