Tenglyn Tablet is a medicine used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, controlling blood sugar levels and preventing serious complications. Tenglyn Tablet is normally prescribed when diet and exercise alone or other medicines do not prove sufficient to control your blood sugar level. Your doctor may prescribe it alone or in combination with other diabetes medicines. It can be taken with or without food. The dose will depend on your condition and blood sugar levels. Use it strictly as advised by your doctor.
