Aims: The ICMR INDIAB-17 study revealed a diabetes prevalence of 11.4% in India, emphasizing the need for effective treatment for glycemic control. A Phase IV study was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) of Remogliflozin, Metformin and Vildagliptin (RMV) in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients uncontrolled on Metformin plus SGLT2 inhibitor or Metformin plus DPP4 inhibitor dual therapy.

Among the currently prescribed pharmacological interventions for IPF, nintedanib demonstrates the ability to decelerate the deterioration of lung function and yield positive clinical outcomes. Multiple randomized placebo-controlled trials have confirmed the efficacy and acceptable safety profile of nintedanib.

We evaluated efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combination (FDC) of low-dose pregabalin prolonged release 75 mg-etoricoxib 60 mg to address both pain components.
Methods: This randomized phase 3 trial conducted at 12 centres across India evaluated efficacy (based on mean change in numeric rating scale [NRS], Roland-Morris disability questionnaire [RDQ], visual analogue scale [VAS], patient global impression of improvement [PGI-I], clinical global impression of improvement [CGI-I] and rescue medication consumption) and safety of FDC in comparison to etoricoxib alone in adult patients with CLBP.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to understand patient adherence, satisfaction, and experience with the smaller sized metformin 500 mg prolonged release (PR) tablet that has been manufactured with the help of technological advancement (Gluformin I 500 mg), in comparison with metformin 500 mg extended-release (ER) tablet, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Patients And Methods: In this postmarketing observational study, T2DM patients who were on a stable dose of metformin 500 mg PR tablet for at least 1 month and had previously received metformin 500 mg ER tablet were recruited from 50 sites in India. The medication adherence and patients' experience, satisfaction, and perception with metformin 500 mg PR tablets were compared with metformin 500 mg ER tablets.
