Method of use, course and dosage Galvus:

To be taken inside. The dosing mode is selected individually depending on the effectiveness and tolerability of the therapy. The recommended maximum daily dose of Vildagliptin should not exceed 100 mg.
The recommended initial dose should be selected taking into account the duration of diabetes mellitus and the level of glycemia, the patient's condition and the treatment regimens of vildagliptin and or metformin already used in the patient.

Before starting metformin-containing drugs, SCF should be defined, then this indicator should be monitored at least annually. In patients at risk of deterioration of pre-existing kidney function, as well as in older patients, kidney function should be monitored more often, for example every three to six months.
The maximum daily dose of metformin should be divided into 2 or 3 doses. In patients with SCF <60 ml/min, the factors contributing to the increased risk of lactacidosis should be assessed before starting metformin-containing therapy. In patients with SCF thirty ml/min, the use of this combination is contraindicated due to the presence of metformin in the preparation.

Application for kidney disorders
The use of the preparation is contraindicated in the case of renal insufficiency or a serious kidney failure in the case of a flowerbed filtration rate of <30 ml/min.
