It is produced by Pharmaniaga, a well-established Malaysian pharmaceutical manufacturer known for regulated production standards and quality assurance. Like many medicines containing metformin, some people may experience side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, stomach discomfort, or a metallic taste in the mouth. If you are considering this medicine, it is useful to understand how it should be taken, how it should be stored, and what precautions to keep in mind. Knowing these practical details helps you handle the medication safely and responsibly.

Pharmaniaga Glumet DC tablets generally have a shelf life of approximately 24 to 36 months from the manufacturing date when stored under recommended conditions. Always check the expiry date printed on the packaging before use and avoid using expired medication.
Store the tablets at room temperature, usually below 30°C, in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the medicine in its original packaging until use and ensure it is stored out of reach of children and pets. Avoid storing it in bathrooms or areas with high humidity.
