I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in March 2021 and was initially prescribed RemoV tablets twice a day, which have remogliflozin etabonate 100mg and vildagliptin 50mg. My recent hba1c is 6.8 and fasting sugar is 139. During my sinus surgery, the doctor advised me to stop RemoV and switch to Glyciphage 500mg (metformin only). Now, my current doctor is suggesting RemoMV, which combines remogliflozin, vildagliptin, and metformin. I'm confused about which one is better for me and why RemoMV is being recommended over the other options. Can you explain the difference and what would work best for my condition?
