Bigomet 500 (Metformin 500mg)

Bigomet 500 contains 500mg metformin hydrochloride — the same active ingredient as Merck's Glucophage and Shionogi's Fortamet. Manufactured by Aristo Pharmaceuticals in India under WHO-GMP standards. Pharmacological behavior is bioequivalent to the brand. Metformin is one of the most widely studied medications in modern medicine.

Metformin's primary FDA indication is type-2 diabetes, but a large body of research has explored secondary effects — modest weight reduction, improved insulin sensitivity, potential longevity / mTOR-pathway interactions (TAME trial, others). Off-label use carries individual responsibility. We don't provide medical advice; metformin has real GI side-effects (nausea, diarrhea — usually transient) and rare but serious risks (lactic acidosis, especially with kidney impairment). Discuss with a physician before self-prescribing.

Metformin is not a controlled substance. The US FDA permits personal importation under enforcement discretion — typically interpreted as a 90-day supply. Similar windows in CA/AU/EU/UK. See our Import Legality policy and verify your country.

Direct from Aristo Pharmaceuticals' authorized export pharmacy via India Post International (registered/tracked) or DHL Express. Transit 2–3 weeks to most Western destinations. Tracking issued upon dispatch.

Card processors decline international generic-pharmacy charges. NOWPayments crypto checkout (LTC, BTC, USDT-TRC20, XMR) sidesteps that and gives you transactional privacy.

We don't ask for one. Aristo's export pharmacy dispenses on Indian regulatory authority. You are responsible for personal-import legality. Metformin is generally well-tolerated but: do not use if you have severe kidney impairment, and consult a physician before starting if you are on any medication or have any chronic condition.
