Vilact M

Yes, Vilact M can cause night sweat, the exact mechanism of sweating is not known. But some research suggests that Vilact M causes hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) especially at night which can cause night sweats. Need to monitor your blood glucose level regularly, and talk to your doctor as your dose of Vilact M may need to be adjusted.

Vilact M works by decreasing the hepatic glucose production. It also works to lower blood sugar by increasing your sensitivity to insulin and decreasing the amount of glucose that is absorbed from the food you eat.

Vilact M is not a known cause of alopecia (hair loss). However, the conditions treated by Vilact M type 2 diabetes and PCOS, often list hair loss as a possible symptom.

Lactic acidosis associated with Vilact M treatment is a rare but fatal adverse effect. Lactic acidosis appears to result from biguanide interference causing an increase in production and decrease in clearance of lactate leading to higher cellular lactate levels. A decrease in pyruvate carboxylase activity, the rate-limiting enzyme in the formation of glucose from lactate, can also decrease hepatic metabolism of lactate. leading to increasing lactic acidosis. Signs and symptoms of Vilact M induced lactic acidosis are nonspecific and include anorexia, nausea, vomiting, altered level of consciousness, hyperpnoea, abdominal pain, and thirst. 

No, you should not take alcohol with Vilact M, because it can cause serious side effects which includes hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). The risk of hypoglycemia is higher when you're drinking and taking Vilact M than if you're just taking Vilact M. Some of the signs of hypoglycemia include dizziness, confusion, and drowsiness.
