Aiwo ACARB contains ACARBOSE 100 mg which is an anti-diabetic medication used to treat type 2 diabetes, especially in patients whose blood sugar levels are not adequately managed by diet and exercise alone. It can be used alone or in combination with other medications. Acarbose works by inhibiting intestinal enzymes that break down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, thereby delaying sugar absorption into the bloodstream and reducing postmeal blood sugar spikes. Proper blood sugar control is essential to prevent complications of diabetes, such as eye problems, kidney damage, and limb loss.
Key Benefits
Aiwo ACARB contains the active ingredient 'Acarbose,' an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor that controls postprandial hyperglycaemia by slowing carbohydrate absorption in the small intestine. It inhibits intestinal enzymes that break down complex sugars and starches into simple sugars, delaying sugar absorption into the bloodstream and reducing the abnormal rise in blood sugar levels after meals. This mechanism manages blood sugar levels without increasing insulin levels, thereby preventing the exacerbation of existing cardiovascular risk factors.
