Description

What is Sukkarto?

Sukkarto is a medication used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It can also be used to prevent type 2 diabetes if you're at a high risk of developing it. 

How does it work?

Sukkarto contains the active ingredient metformin hydrochloride, which belongs to the group of medicines called biguanides. This medication works by reducing the amount of sugar that your liver releases into your blood. It also works at making your body respond better to insulin.

Is Sukkarto suitable for me?

This medication is prescribed for adults who have been unsuccessful at reducing their risk of Type 2 diabetes using a combination of diet and exercise. This medicine is most effective if you are below 45 years of age, are overweight, have high blood glucose levels after a meal, or if you developed diabetes during pregnancy.
