Trevia R2 (5/100mg) 14 Tablets

Trevia R2 is a combination oral antidiabetic medication containing repaglinide and metformin. Repaglinide stimulates insulin release from the pancreas in response to meals, helping control post-meal blood sugar spikes, while metformin is a biguanide that reduces glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity. Together, they help maintain overall glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.
